She loved visitors, new clothes, her hair done, looking at pictures, reading the paper from top to bottom, the flyers, shopping, Gospel Music, Judge Judy and Family Feud that she called “Family Fuel”. She loved her flowers in the summer and watching the humming birds and especially Mrs. Dunster’s Donuts for breakfast! Edith loved her home in Maugerville.
