Edith A. Archer

December 14, 1928 — December 30, 2014

Edith A. Archer, 86, of Windham left this life on Tuesday, December 30, 2014 after a brief illness. Edie was born to the late Grover Dobson and Mary (Pushor) Dobson on December 14, 1928 in Westbrook Maine. In 1946 she united in marriage to 'Bud' Archer until his death in 1977. In 1979 she met Donald Nygren and shared 35 years with him until his death in June 2014. Edie is survived by her loving children, Deborah Johnson and the late James Johnson of Florida, Trudy and Craig Kilby of Mansfield, Vicki and Ken Barney of Newington and Joleen and Roger Lavallie of Sprague. She was predeceased by her granddaughter, Lynel Beebe and is survived by her remaining grandchildren, Christopher, Christina, Shari, Shawn, Justin, Kyle, Dallas, Alex, Sarah, Travis, Kyle N., Shaye, Jamie and Nicholas, and several great grandchildren. During her life Edie loved spending time with her family and many friends. She resided in the Card Home where she had many wonderful friends and good times. The family would like to thank the residents and staff of the Card Home for making her time there so special and caring for her so well. She was always willing and eager to lend a hand to anyone who needed it and loved to be around people. It was in her nature to hop in the car and take a trip to Maine if a friend or family member needed help or support. She was the matriarch of a very large and loving family. She truly cherished her friendships and had many special lifetime friends. She was loved by all and will be sadly missed by many. There will be a Memorial Service for Edie on Sunday, January 4, 2015 at 2:00pm at the First Congregational Church in Windham Center. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Holy Family Shelter, or any charity of choice.
