She has lived in the Brimfield area most of her life and worked at Rockwell Automation was a caregiver for home health care. Edi was a thoughtful friend and mother who was always lifting others up. She was known for her amazing cooking, love of nature and her witty comments, but most of all how deeply she loved her family especially her children.
