Edith grew up in different parts of Oklahoma.  She later moved to Johnson, Kansas, then back to Medicine Park where she lived the rest of her years.

She was a member of Richards Spur Baptist church.

Edith was a loving daughter, sister, wife, mom, granny, aunt and friend, though you didn't stay friends for long because she always treated her friends like family.  She was the core of numerous gatherings, and she loved everyone and loved to be of service to each.

Edith adored her family and loved God, and she loved having friends and family in her home.  She thoroughly enjoyed playing games and was quite competitive, and there was always a deck or two of cards on the kitchen table.  We can neither confirm nor deny that she may have been known to throw a deck of cards in the fireplace.  She also loved music, dancing, doing puzzles, fishing, cooking, traveling, camping, rock hounding, bird watching and yard work.

Edith worked for Underwoods and the Ranch House for a number of years.  She also worked at Southwest Oklahoma Shared Services, managed a hotel in Apache and drove a bulk mail delivery truck.  Edith was also a caregiver for many years to include her husband, John, mom, Katie, husband, Dea, and son, Eddie.  She was happy caring for others and being helpful.  It was one of the ways she served God. If you even mentioned doing any kind of work, she was always ready and raring to go.  You didn't even have to ask.

Card games, fish frys and gatherings will not be the same without the core of our family.
