It is with a heavy heart I offer my deepest sympathies to the Janzen family in the loss of a truly incredible lady - a woman who touched the hearts of so many. May you rest in peace Edith, you will be very missed. - Posted by: Michelle Janzen () on: Jan 14, 2015

I am so sad. Very recently, Edith and I reconnected at the funeral of a cousin. She was so vibrant, funny and irreverant (in a good way). There are many wonderful Ediths in our extended family, and I was pleased to see that she measured up to the name. My sincere condolences to Edith's family, and to my other cousins, Josh and Helen. - Posted by: Eleanor Andres (Cousin) on: Jan 13, 2015

Such great memories being in your family home in Port Rowan, especially around the kitchen table enjoying your mom's great cooking! Our sincere sympathies to the passing of your mom. My mom loved her annual phone visit with your mom each Christmas. And this past Christmas was no different. Take care!
