Edith was an amazing person to be around. Everyone who met her knew she was one of a kind. She had such an impact on everyone she came into contact with. She would always go out of her way to help others. I have been so blessed to have known Edith. I am glad that my kids got to meet her, if only they would have been with her for 20 more years! She will be loved and missed my so many. I know she is in heaven watching over us and taking care of my sweet Baby Nathan Kole. Edith, I will never forget you and I love so much.
I love you,
Kelly Killian
