Edith Irene Wood was born Nov. 6, 1943 in Oakland, Calif., daughter of Max and Georgia (Plumlee) Logan, the oldest of three children. She passed away Feb 15, 2008 at her home.
She graduated from Clinton High School in 1961. Edith went to nursing school in Kansas City for a short
time, then started working at Bell Telephone Company in Kansas City. She moved back to Clinton in 1966 and worked at Clearfield Cheese Plant where she met and married Estel Wood on March 23, 1968.
In addition to helping with farming and milking cattle, she tried to be a good step mother to Estel's three sons, Rick, Ron and Brian. One of her greatest joys was baking pies and cakes and taking food to neighbors that were sick and elderly. She liked to go into the woods and pick gooseberries and blackberries for pies.
Most precious to her was her family. She was a good wife, daughter, sister and stepmother. She always
made it a point to call her family and friends atleast once a week to check on them to see if they needed anything and to let them know what was going on her life.
Her father and mother and brother, Glen Logan, preceded Edith in death.
