Although I only knew Edith less than 10 years, her memory will be forever cherished as I recall her quiet way across the many Holiday tables that we shared.  She took great joy in the celebration of the Jewish holidays with her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, other family members and us, her friends.  Her place across the table will surely be missed; however, she will always be remembered in my heart just as if she were with us in body.
May her memory be for blessing.

We lost one of the good ones this week when God called her home. I knew her all my life and she went to school with my grandma and Alice so I knew her before I was born. She had a big and kind heart and a funny giggle. She was there to comfort my grandpa after he lost his wife and ended up being my new grandma for many years. I think it was good for both of them. We will all miss her dearly. Rest in peace Grandma Edie. Love Barry, Michelle and Mark.
