Born with a passion for always doing good, she pushed the boundaries of all she set out to do. She was a beacon of wisdom and compassion and embodied the true essence of humanity,

Edith had an unparalleled ability to inspire and uplift those around her, whether at work or at the community level. Her memory will forever remain etched in the countless hearts fortunate enough to know her and whose lives she touched
