The best wife, mother, Grandmother and Great-Grandmother we ever could have had, passed away peacefully, at her home in Smiths Falls on Tuesday, October 6, 2015 in her 92nd year. Loving wife for 62 years of the late Arthur "Art” Best who predeceased Edith in 2013. Devoted mother to Greg (Susan), Margaret Ann Bates (David), Mary Ellen Cote and John (Marcella). Proud grandmother to Emily (Kevin), Erin (Nick), Adrienne (Nathan), Alexander (Krystal), Joseph (Jenna), Bill (Amie), Mary Elizabeth (Chad), Jesse, Jackie, Jane (Lance) and Noah and great-grandmother to Zachery, Piper, Zoe, Ruby, Romie, Declan and Ava. Edith is survived by her sisters-in-law Laura Bullerwell, Elaine Bullerwell and Helen Best (late Gordon). Predeceased by her parents Kenneth and Margaret (nee McGuire) Bullerwell as well as her brothers Charles and Kenneth Bullerwell. Fondly remembered by her nieces and nephews across Ontario, Nova Scotia and England. Edith graduated from the Yarmouth Regional Hospital School of Nursing in 1945. She nursed at the Yarmouth Regional Hospital in Nova Scotia and the Brockville General Hospital in Ontario. While she left formal nursing after marrying Art in 1951 and starting a family, the nursing profession remained an important part of her life. She volunteered at the Smiths Falls Public Hospital for many years and kept close ties with her fellow nursing alumni. Edith, along with Art were enthusiastic volunteers in their community, as well as working partners in their long running business A F Best Floorcoverings. She was a devoted member of St. John's Anglican Church and participated in many aspects of church life. Edith had many interests such as her bridge club, knitting, solving crossword puzzles, but her primary love was her family. The family would like to acknowledge the wonderful support received through the staff of the Community Care Access Centre and the Hospice Palliative Care Program, the nurses of Bayshore Home Health, the PSW's of Care Partners and to Dr. Kevin Mooney for the conscientious care and treatment he provided to both Edith and Art these past few years. We are deeply grateful. Family and friends may pay their respects at the Blair & Son Funeral Home, 112 Beckwith St. N., Smiths Falls on Sunday, October 11, 2015 from 1 to 4 p.m. Funeral Service will be held at St. John the Evangelist Anglican Church, 2 George St. S., Smiths Falls on Monday, October 12th at 11:00 a.m. Interment, Maple Vale Cemetery. In memory of Edith, contributions to St. John’s Anglican Church or the Smiths Falls Community Hospital Foundation would be appreciated.
