Age: 100 • Shelburne
Ivy Edwards was born August 3, 1915 in Enola PA, to Ernest Carl Weirick MD and Alice Cecelia Hair. She died August 22, 2015 in Shelburne VT.
Ivy was a great Mom and a good friend to all. Her smile and kind heart will be remembered by all who knew her. She volunteered in nursing homes well into her 80's; leading singing, rhythm bands, sewing etc. She played a mean piano. She was named Woman of the Year in Kingsport TN as a result of these activities. Ivy was an ardent golfer, bridge player and swimmer.

Kathryn Edwards (Eddie), Janet Martin (Bruce) and Bob Edwards (Mary). Also, 10 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren (including Jim Douglass, Kathy D. Mackey, Cara D. Worthley and Laurel D.
