In Memory…
Edith Carol Hewitt, an artist known for her wood inlay paintings of landscapes and historic homes, died Saturday, Oct. 9, 2010, in Manchester. Working with chips of painted wood, she meticulously captured the detail and spirit of the buildings and surroundings of her native New England. Later, she worked in other mediums, including oils, watercolor, and ink.

She had come to Holy Trinity in the 1950’s and her “Jesus with His Disciples” banner has hung in the Holy Trinity sanctuary for nearly forty years!She is survived by her sister, Virginia Pooley of Newton and her husband William Pooley; daughter, Wendy Mitchell of Bronx, N.Y. and her husband Clesont; her son, Paul Hewitt of Old Tappan and his wife Lori; and her daughter, Elizabeth Blanda of Philadelphia, Pa. and her husband Andrew. Her grandchildren are Melissa Martin, Alycia Melendez, Julia and Lily Hewitt, Amelia and Addison Blanda; a great-grandchild, Julius; and nieces, Cheryl Williams and Rachelle White.

Our sympathy and prayers are with the family of Neil Johnson after hearing of his death. Neil has been remembered in our prayers for many months and he was the father of Kevin and Brian Johnson. “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die.” John 11:25-26
