Mary Elgin Edge
d. October 20, 2017
Mary Jo died on October 20th 2017 surrounded by her loving family. She was born in Anderson, SC on October 1st, 1945 and a resident of Pooler, GA. She was the eldest of three daughters born to Mary and Homer Elgin.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Mary & Homer Elgin and her sweet younger sister, Carol Waters.
Mary Jo is survived by her husband, Claude Edge, 5 daughters, Vicky Bennet (Mark), Susan McCord (Clint), Tammy Jo Braddock (Brad), Lisa Fowler (Earl), Claudette Gerber (Eric), and her younger sister Pam Elgin Horne (Danny) , along with 18 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews.
The word that best defines Mama is love. She loved her children, grandchildren and great Grandchildren with an unconditional love so deep that it left her mark on every one of our hearts.

She was full of life. Loved her kids, grandkids, and her dogs Mandy, Charlie, Peanut, and Cyrus. She had Scleroderma for many years but she wasn't going to give in to it easily. As it took a toll on her, she loved asking me to fix her oatmeal or get her a Diet Coke. She said no one could fix her food like I could. I think she really just loved bossing me around. I loved taking care of her. I'm going to miss that. We will all miss her. She was my life. - Claude
