Edith J. Abate, 89, of Williamsport passed away on Tuesday, March 30, 2021, at her home, surrounded by her loving family. Born in Williamsport on Dec. 27, 1931, Edith was the daughter of the late Achille and Oliva (DePolis) Tolomei. She graduated in 1949 from St. Joseph High School and spent the majority of her life making her house a home and, later on, working for Brodart Company.
Friends and family of Edith have long described her as kind, caring and selflessly giving. Many a holiday celebration took place at her house, which would fill with tables, laughter and the smells of one of her traditional Italian meals. She was a prolific Williamsport band parent and a member of the former Ascension Church where she was in the church choir, was a Sunday School teacher and volunteered at Bingo. She was a current member of St. Joseph the Worker Parish and was strong in her faith and ever a prayer warrior.
