We are deeply sorry for your loss ~ Lux Funeral Home & Cremation Services
Q: What will you miss most about Edith?
A: I could not ask for a better friend, she loved me even when I was grumpy, bitchy, and cantankerous. I loved traveling with her because she would stop anywhere I wanted to explore or take pictures. She even patted my head when I snored.
My friend.. one of the many things she made for me. Picture of some of our good old days in L&D. Such a very special person ❤️
My sympathy to Austinn & Mckenzi for your great loss love pritch

Edith was always a joy and the glue that held the family together I will miss her smile and hope to see her on the other side Your Aunt Joycelyn
Q: How did you meet Edith?
A: Dear friend. From the moment I met you in the Girl scouts, I knew we would be fast friends. You were the best co-leader for all those 9 years I could ever have asked for. The most generous, kind and funny friend. My goodness we sold a lot of Girl scout cookies. My biggest regret is that we did not have one more lunch together. Catch up like we had said we were going to do. I will miss you terribly and cannot believe that you will no longer be here to bring brightness into this world. You’re talent and caring heart will continue on in all those who knew you and learned from you. Your fellow Girl scout leader, Kathy Villarose and Ann-Marie Villarose
Q: How did you meet Edith?
A: I first met Edith in Girl Scouts where we both were Girl Scout leaders here in New Braunfels. We spent many fun times together over the years camping with our girls, summer day camps, Halloween festivals, Christmas Craft Fairs, cookie sales, and leader meetings are just a few.
I also attend the same church as Edith and her family, St. Paul Lutheran. I will miss her sweet smile and hugs every time we met. She was a great friend to many and I know she will be greatly missed.
Much love to her children and nephews.
Vanessa Schwab and the rest of the Schwab Family
