Edith Pieroni Cerrito, 102, passed away, peacefully,  Tuesday, May 25, 2021. She was born November  19, 1918, in Memphis, TN. She was an incredible  Italian cook and baker. She was very creative. She  enjoyed making pottery and growing plants and  herbs. She had a true love of reading and was a  voracious reader. Everyone who came in contact  with her, immediately adored her. The highlight of  her life was her three children, Dolores C. Engelberg  (Arnold), Samuel Everett Cerrito (Bonnie) and  Donna C. McClure. She loved them, dearly. She  also loved and was very much a part f her  grandaughters' and great-grandchildren's lives,  Leslie E. Freedman (Rachel and Alex Freedman) and  Lauren E. Notowich (Sam Notowich, Jake, Chloe and  Brooke Notowich). She was "the rock" of her  family. Until her health conditions made it  impossible, she attended Mass, weekly and was a  devout Catholic. She will be desperately missed.

In lieu of  flowers, donations should be made to the Memphis

Jewish Home, Juvenile Diabetes Research  Foundation (JDRF), or an organization of your  choice.
