Edna Edna Alverda Rockwell Talbert

Edna Alverda Talbert “Bertie” passed away peacefully on March 30, 2018 in Aldie, Virginia.
She was born on October 8, 1937 in Ralph, Pennsylvania to Everette and Edna (Simpson) Rockwell.
She graduated from German Township High School in 1955.
Her work as an Activities Director at both a nursing home and a home for people with disabilities brought her great joy.
However, nothing brought her more joy than her deep, abiding love for her husband of 59 years. She married Joseph Nelson Talbert on November 1, 1958.
Edna “Bertie” was happiest spending time with her friends and family: cooking, crafting, playing cards or golfing.
She is survived by her husband, Joseph; sister, Vivian Caudill: four children, Trent, Michelle, Kristin and Marlene; 13 grandchildren; two great grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Edna and Everette Rockwell; sister, Helen Skursha; and sister, Sarah McMahon.
