Edith had two loves outside of her family.  The first was her church and church family.  Though unable to attend in later years, she was quite active before health forced her to slow down.  She served as Acteens Director for several years.  The second love was golf.  She actually got her husband H. W. into golf.  She told him she wanted to do something with him outdoors instead of sitting in the stands while he officiated football, baseball and softball.  He retired from umpiring to play golf with his wife.    As with church, she was unable to participate as much in later years, but she kept his game going by watching his swing.  She especially enjoyed working at the Bay City Country Club in the pro shop.  She made a lot of friends there.  She loved going outside and watching the kids run and play.

Visitation will begin at 9:00 AM Thursday, November 17, 2022 at Cedar Lane Baptist Church.  Funeral service will be at 11:00 AM with Rev. Mike Patterson officiating.  Interment will follow at the Bowie Cemetery.  Pallbearers will be Eugene Taylor, Jason Beard, Cadin Cain, C. L. Pray, Harry Urban, Jr. and Edger Fuentas.  Willie Urban, Harold Urban, Parker Urban and Fred Medina will serve as honorary pallbearers.
