Not sure what to say?

To the family of Edith we wish you comfort in the celebration of a life well lived. My family has known her for over sixty years since she and Duncan were best friends with my parents Bob and Billy Walker. Duncan was a member of Detroit Renaissance Lions club with Bob while Edith and Billy were Lioness, the auxillary, of Renaissance LC.
We know that Edith will let Duncan know that she also became a Lion after he passed, in Detroit Mid City Lions Club with Evelyn Cooper, Fred Simpson...

Big Edith, as we know her, was a Joy to know. She will always be remembered with a Smiles.
Family, hold on to the Good memories, they will never die. Much Love,
john & joan

I have known Edith for many years working through the school system. Edith always had a warm personality.

My sincere condolences to the family! Big Edith and I reconnected at some of the Sfld Burgh Gazebo summer jazz concerts years ago. I looked forward to running into her there to recieve a warm hello. Big Edith was the epitome of style and grace . Rest in peace

You touched my life many years ago. You will Forever be in my heart.
