Edith J. Levengood, Edith J. (nee Thompson), 76, of West Deptford on February 17, 2010. Born in Gloucester City on Nov. 22, 1933.

Edith was a generous and selfless woman who put her family before everything else, including herself. After her husband passed away in 1969, Edie moved from Cherry Hill to West Deptford to raise her three young children. She also raised her granddaughter and cared for her aging mother. To provide for her family, Edie worked two jobs - at Macys and AMC movie theater in Deptford. Besides her family, one of Edie's greatest joys was to share the many wonderful memories of her childhood and her life with her husband. Her courage and smile remained with her until the very end.

Edith is the loving mother of James (Billie-Jo), Linda, and the late Jon Levengood; adoring Mom-Mom of Stephanie, Jon, Tyler, and Tiffany; beloved great grandmother of Damian; dear friend of Doris Lowe; beloved sister of Marge Tieers of Gloucester City and the late Doris Vogel, Elaine Scheule and Barbara Thomas. Also survived by many nieces and nephews whom she adored. Edith was predeceased by her husband James.
