Edith Virginia Green

Mom was a loving mother, nanny, aunt, great aunt, cousin and friend to those who knew her. She will be sadly missed. Mom was predeceased by her mother Ruth (nee Popplestone) and father Ted Finch-Field; her sisters Gwen, Fern, Lois and brothers Horace, Edward, Jackie, Regie, Ron and Berkley. In her early years, Edith was employed by Imperial Optical, painting irises for the blind and ushering at the Gaiety Theatre. Soon after, she was married and devoted her life to raising her 3 children and becoming a single mother, later on. While raising her 3 children, she found employment at Woolco (Walmart) and during that time, she made many friends with those she worked with and retired over 20 years later.

Mom will be greatly missed by her children Laura (Randy), Leanne (Bruce), and Rodney (Gloria); along with her grandchildren Zachary, Alexandra and Emily as well as many nieces and nephews.

I give you this one thought to keep

I am not there, I do not sleep

I am the sunlight on ripened grain

The gentle autumn rain

Quiet birds in circled flight

The soft stars that shine at night

Do not think of me as gone

I am with you still in each new dawn
