She loved spending time with family, cooking, shopping and traveling with her husband and good friends Welton & Rosie Brison after retirement.  She and co-worker Shirley Viola started the Community Christmas Eve dinner, providing free meals to the community for over 20 years.  Her home was always open, if someone needed a place to live.

She also leaves 12 sisters and brothers-in-law, cousins, and multiple nieces and nephews, and friend Judy McGee. While a resident at the nursing home she somehow gained a personal shopper, Aimee Kley, a personal beautician and prayer warrior, Donna Matech, her spa princess Ashley Overkamp, and her go to aide Trish Cheeks.

Edith was preceded in death by her parents, two brothers, one son Saverne and a grandson Travis.
