Edith worked as a custodian for the Halifax School Board, retiring after 17 years, where she made many long lasting friendships. She was a dedicated hard worker. She tackled many physically demanding jobs, giving her the nickname “Mighty Mouse”. Mom was not only a hard worker and devoted mom but a true friends as well.

She enjoyed a good challenging game of scrabble or Skip-bo and loved doing jigsaw and crossword puzzles. She also loved baking for family and friends. Her favorite time of the year was springtime, when she could plant her favorite flowers, sweet peas.

Dear mom, it is your time to reunite with dad and our siblings in heaven. Until we meet again, you will be forever in our hearts.
