It's hard to believe it's been one year. Thinking of E today and all of the beautiful memories over the years. We miss you every day!

Edith at Lauren's high school graduation May 2024.

“Butterflies can’t see their wings. They can’t see how truly beautiful they are, but everyone else can. People are like that as well.” — Naya Rivera

Edith was truly a rare and beautiful presence in the lives of so many. Her warmth, laughter, depth of love for others and light will forever remain with all who were blessed to have her in their lives . Today and always, may loving memories bring you peace, comfort and strength.

There are no words which adequately express our heartache. The Vega's were our "across the street" neighbors in Burke, VA 36  years ago. But, we became good friends and we sure felt  a huge void when they moved to Florida. However, miles did not diminish our caring friendship. Dwayne and I spent lots of time on phone chats. However, I don't think any of my calls with E were ever under an hour in duration. Typical greeting.... Me: "Hey, E!" ... Edith: "Hey girlfriend!"
As friends,  we shared not only our lives but those of our children and grandchildren. Oh, how Edith adored her kids, all of her grandkids, Glen, and his children too. 
Edith always referred to our youngest as "the baby" as she was 8 months old when we became neighbors. When Alyson started 1st grade, "E" graciously helped care for her before and after school...such a treat for Alyson, she adored Mr. & Mrs. V.  Moving on to 2017, Bill and Edith drove all the way to Cape Hatteras to attend Alyson's wedding! Such TRUE friends.
Edith was easy to love as she had a caring heart, a sense of humor with a unforgettable laugh.
We have so many wonderful memories of times we shared with both Edith and Bill, our friends.
Heaven has gained an angel and her life surely made a loving impact on many lives. 
We miss you "E".
With our love, Suzanne and Dwayne
