Monday, January 8th at 1 p.m. at All Souls Church we will gather with family and friends in a service, followed by a reception, to honor Ede’s long, amazing and creative life.

Our service will be filled with music offered by family members, members of the Blanche Moyse Chorale, and our All Souls Choir to honor the legacy of leadership she offered. She directed our All Souls choir and other musical groups in Brattleboro for decades. She was a true inspiration, a feisty independent thinker who shared her creative spirit, musical expertise and humor with so many. We miss her dearly.
