Carolyn, Tammy, Timmy, and Tommy - Sending our deepest condolences upon the loss of your dear, sweet Mother. Edith was a jewel - loved her family - stood up for what she believed in - was always funny and could bring a smile to your most dreary day. When we bought our first little house 2 doors up from your family in the mid-70s, I never knew at some point I would be working at the same place as your Mom (Karastan Service Ctr) and having even more contact with her since being at Pace-Stone. We would always reminisce about those earlier days and laugh at some events that had occurred - one in particular that very shortly after moving in on Delaware, a knock came on the door and it was Timmy and Tommy (just little fellows) wanting to know if Calvin could come out to play !! It was so cute! So many memories! Always hold close in your heart those memories with your Mom. May the Lord give you all peace, comfort, strength, and direction in the days to follow. Love and prayers.

I am so so sorry to hear about Edith passing! I met Edith through shopping at Hallnark many years before we closed and years later I had the privilege to meet her again! She hired Spiffy Jiffs to help her clean her house! Just things that she wasn't able to do herself anymore and I was the one that got to go! Such a precious lady! Have missed going for awhile but I would get Jennifer to call and check on her for me! She will truly be missed! May God bless each and every one of you!
Tanya Roberts
To the Family: Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Edith was truly a joy and a pleasure to know and work with. Praying for you all and may God Bless.
