On January 12, 2023 Heaven gained another angel. Evelyn J. (Edge / Edgie) Theiss (95) of Strattanville was called home by the Lord at the Clarion Hospital after a brief illness.

Edge was born in Clarion, PA on March 2, 1927. The Daughter of Lancy L and Wilkie (Moody) Theiss.

Edgie spent her entire life in the Clarion/Strattanville area where she was a life long member of the Strattanville Methodist Church. She enjoyed attending church services and helping with the church rather it be Bible School or playing the piano and other functions. She was a graduate of Clarion Limestone School district. Following high school she went on to become a legal secretary. Edge started her career with the Davis and Dolby law firm before moving on to work for Pope, Pope, and Drayer until she retired.

Evelyn was blessed to have a wonderful and long retirement. She enjoyed going to visit friends and loved spending time with all her friends and Family. From cooking dinners and baking items, she loved the quality time with her family. No matter how old she was she always had time to play games (especially dominos) with the younger generations in the family, which she always said kept her young at heart. In addition to spending time with friends and family, she volunteered at the Clarion County Christian Academy where she was able to help students with studies as well as share her faith and vast many years of knowledge with the youth. Through everything she did, she showed her faith and devotion to God and was always there for anyone in need.

Though she will be deeply missed by all that loved and cared about her, find peace in the fact that she is no longer in pain, and is rejoicing with her friends and loved ones that have went before her.

Edgie was an amazing aunt and sister-inlaw. She was not just an aunt to the family, but to a lot of our friends that got to know her through the years. She will be greatly missed and forever Loved.
