Edith Needleman

I still remember...

I just learned of Edie´s passing and wish to extend my sincerest condolences to her family. I was Edie´s college roommate and, though we fell out of touch, I always remembered her as one of the sweetest and kindest people I have known. Wishing you peace, Nancy Bannon (New York)

I still think of Edie even after all this time - and without these reminders. She really was a bright light and those of us who knew her will always remember her. My thoughts are with all the family.

Yes, I still remember. Yes, I still have the highest opinion of her. She was amazing. I´ve never known anyone quite like her. Sending consoling thoughts to all the family.

Larry and Family: On behalf of my entire family I would like to express my deepest condolences on your loss. When you're ready, please get in touch with me. May you be comforted among the mourners of Zion and Jerusalem.

So sorry to hear of her passing. Sending out prayers for you all from our home to yours. May you find comfort in those you love. - Wendy & Rob

She was always so supportive of me in my position when I became Principal. Always the overprotective mother, she would call me in the winter to tell me she thought it was too cold for Josh to be outside.
