Daily News | Edith M. Smith, nurse, fashionista, and teacher’s aid, has died at 82
Edith M. Smith, 82, of Philadelphia, nurse, cosmetics representative, teacher’s aid, and volunteer, died Sunday, May 28, of lung cancer at NewCourtland Germantown Home.
Ms. Smith sold cosmetics to her clients, offered style tips on the side, and loved showing other fashionistas her prized collection of shoes and hats. Her own presentation, from the pearls around her neck to her pearls of wisdom, was generally flawless and memorable.“Her ability to put together an outfit was consistently awe-inspiring,” her family said in a tribute.
She displayed beautiful seasonal bouquets in her home nearly year round and gave flowers often as presents to family and friends. She also worked as a private caregiver and finally retired two decades ago after helping children as a nonteaching assistant in Philadelphia schools. Edith Mae Smith was born Dec. 10, 1940, in Clarksville, Va. She and her parents moved to Philadelphia near Temple University when she was 7, and she attended Murrell Dobbins Vocational High School.
She met Vashner M. Boddie at the restaurant, and they married in 1960. They had daughter Mikki and son Vash, and lived in Northwest Philadelphia. After a divorce, she had son John Smith. Her former husband died earlier.
