Aunt Edie was an elementary school teacher in Streator and Hennepin for thirty two years.  She was a member of Oquawka Methodist Church, Republican Women, Henderson County Retired Teachers, and Henderson County Home Extension.  She loved to cook, to entertain, to fish, to travel, and to go shopping, and out to eat with her friends. She lived a full life filled with happiness and joy.

For the last three and a half years, she was a resident of LaSalle County Nursing Home.  She loved each of the caring staff there, and shared many stories and laughter with them.  All would have to agree, she truly had the most wonderful laugh.
