Edith F. Ratty

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Edith (Edie) Ratty, 85. She passed away on September 6, 2020 and was our loving, devoted wife, mother, grandma, great grandma and friend to all whose lives she touched.

She grew up loving to dance, later teaching and performing.

Edie met and married Warren, the love of her life, on June 6, 1953 and had four children.

Edie lived a full life as a wonderful mother and homemaker. She loved to cook, kept an immaculate home and loved shopping. Most of all she loved her family and instilled strong values in her children which served them well. She was very kind and compassionate to all who knew her.

Once becoming empty nesters, Edie and Warren loved traveling.

Edie will be dearly missed and forever in our hearts.

Edie is preceded in death by her beloved husband, Warren; parents, Adelard and Faybelle Gendreau; brother, Bob Gendreau; and sister, Adele Chester.

She is survived by her daughter, Robin (Ad) Slentz; daughter, Tracy Huskisson; son, Scott (Beth) Ratty; son, Todd Ratty; 6 grandsons; 3 granddaughters; 2 great grandsons; and 2 great granddaughters.
