Edie was my grandfather's sister. She died in 1942 of a bacterial infection and while penicillin had been invented it wasn't widely available. She was 29 years old. Edie had a husband, Fred who got on with the business of life and remarried. He never got around to getting a headstone for Edie and less than 20 years later he passed away too. My grandfather told me this story when I moved to Drexel Hill but it wasn't til after his death this summer when I was helping to clean out his home that I found a picture of a happy sweet faced young couple and learned that it was Edie and Fred.

This cache is dedicated to Edie.
