When we were all together on Bowen Island at our 40th reunion I so enjoyed a wonderful visit with Edith. She was always one of the most positive people. And then when we were all back at St.B for our 45th she shared her love of family and her St.B friends. You are all in our thoughts and prayers. May all your wonderful memories comfort you always.

I always enjoyed working with Edith. She was very passionate about her work in Palliative Care and was a true advocate for her patients. Working as a Palliative nurse was a true calling for her. I will miss that great smile and positive energy. My sincere sympathies to Vern and the rest of the family. - Posted by: Brigitte Remillard (Palliative Care St. Boniface Hospital co-worker) on: Jun 01, 2015

I am so very sorry for your loss. I know how difficult it is to lose your life partner so suddenly. Edith and I worked together for a few years and I knew when I worked with her all would be good. She knew her stuff and always had a smile. She loved to laugh and loved her family very much.She always had a story to share. I extend my deepest sympathies to you Vern and your family. Right now you feel like your on autopilot! I have been there and it does help to get through the now. Loved ones are there so use them for support, they need to help and you need them.. Again my deepest sympathies. - Posted by: Michelle Chuchmuch (Friend and Colleague) on: May 30, 2015
