Edith Marie (Sgobba) George, 86, of Endicott, NY, passed away on October 28, 2025, in Syracuse, NY.
She was predeceased by her beloved husband of 61 years, Joseph George; her sister, Sandra Vanvestrout; and her parents, Susan (Ziemba) Sgobba and Paul Sgobba.
She is survived by her son, Michael George (Carol Wendler); her grandsons, Brendan (Kristi) George, Damian (Katie) George, and Cameron George; and her cherished great-grandchildren, Charlie Jo George, Maxwell George, and Teddy George. She is also survived by many loved nieces, nephews, and cousins who each held a special place in her heart.
Edith Marie George was the heart and the light of her family - a selfless and loving wife, mother, grandmother, and friend whose biggest joy came from caring for others. She created a warm and welcoming home, raising her son with pure unconditional love and supporting her husband throughout their 61 years of marriage. Known as Edie, Aunt Edie, Grandma, Momma, or to some "One-Putt Edie," she lived a full life with a bright smile and a contagious laugh, always curious, always positive, and always ready to cheer on the Yankees, NY Giants, and her favorite golfer, Jordan Spieth. She loved golf, bowling, tennis, dancing, and any chance to enjoy time with the people she loved. Her grandsons grew up wrapped in her warm love and endless energy - being driven to golf courses and skate parks, exploring trails in the woods, flying kites at the school, or diving through kiddie pools she insisted on filling with hot water even if it made Grandpa mad. Edie gave generously of her time, her energy, and her heart. She poured love into every day, and her family will forever cherish the memories of a woman who made life happier, lighter, and fuller just by being in it.

Funeral services will be held Monday November 3rd at 11:00 AM at the Leon Pucedo Funeral Home, Inc. 1905 Watson Blvd. Endicott, NY.Burial will follow in Calvary Cemetery, Johnson City, NY. The family will receive friends at the Pucedo Funeral Home on Monday November 3rd from 10:00 AM until time of service at 11:00 AM.

In lieu of flowers or gifts, donations may be made to the Central Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired in honor of her incredible gift of a great-grandson, Maxwell George.
