Not sure what to say?

I only met Edie once, when she travelled all the way to Sydney to be part of my sister Paiges wedding to her grandson, Jean Pierre Henderson. I remember her to be friendly, charismatic and graceful. My sincerest condolences to all of her extended family and friends. Amanda Lintott

Edith's passing is also mourned by John Rush, brother-in-law; John Rush Jr (and family), nephew; Daryl Grady, niece; Elaine Rangel, niece; Rudy Desort Jr, nephew. Thank you to all who loved and cared for her and her animals.

Edie with fruit and flowers, summer 2009

We are left with one less fine heart, mind and soul with the passing of Edie. Deborah Pintonelli & children Alex and Nico Roesch send their love to her.

Edie, as she was known to her neighbors in our Lakeview Condos building, was a good neighbor and friend to me for the last 7 years. My life has been enriched knowing her, talking with her, and watching her gentle daily influence on our little condo community. She will be missed by all who knew her.
