Edith Irine Hoertt

She was born on August, 11, 1939, in Lexington, KY, and lived a life defined by love, resilience, and devotion to her family. Through many challenges, she showed quiet strength and grace, always putting others before herself.

She was a loving mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, and her presence brought comfort to those around her. She retired from Lazarus and was a long time member of St. Helen's Parish. She had a warm smile and a generous heart, and loved gardening, cooking for her family, and time spent with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

She is survived by her loving husband of 68 years, Robert J. Hoertt; children Debbie (Gregg) Hews, and Jeff (Jani) Hoertt; grandchildren Sarah, Dustin, Jesse, James, Joshua, Ashley, Emma and Ethan; and 11 great-grandchildren, with the 12th on the way,

A Memorial visitation will be held on Friday, January 23, 2026, from 10:00am to 11:00am at St. Helen’s Parish (605 Granville Pl, Dayton, OH 45431) followed by mass and a luncheon at the same venue. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Catholic Charity, Church, or Hospice in her memory.

Edith will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered always.
