Obituary
Please share a memory of Edith to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Her family bids an unexpected farewell to their dear mother, nana and great-grandma, but also give thanks that the Lord peacefully took her home to join her beloved husband Geoffrey. She will be sorely missed by her son Brian (Marika) and daughter Carol Ann (Alexander). She will also be missed by her three grandchildren, Julie (Rob), Corey (Sophie), Geoffrey; and four great-grandchildren, Jacob, Mattihas, Lukas and Portia. Edith raised her family in Smiths Falls and moved back to The Falls in retirement. She shared many happy times with friends at the Civitan Club and was an avid Euchre player. Her summers were spent at McCreary’s Beach, playing cards, bingo and dancing. Her last years were spent at Bayfield Manor where she enjoyed quiet puff-puffs on her patio, feeding the birds and squirrels. The family wishes to send a heartfelt thanks to the caring and compassionate family at Bayfield Manor where Edith called home for the past 15 years.
At Edith’s request bio-cremation has taken place and there will be no visitation. A private family service will be held at a later date. As expression of sympathy, donations to CNIB would be appreciated by the family. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Lannin Funeral Home, Smiths Falls. The family invites you to share your memories and leave condolences at www.lannin.ca.
