Edith Z Bergeron

Edith fought a good fight but lost her long battle with cancer. She has been a fighter and survivor all her life and has kept her faith in Jesus. Henceforth, there is laid up for her a crown of righteousness, with the Lord.

She is survived by her beloved husband of 62 years, Nicholas Bergeron; her children and their spouses: Nicky Bergeron (Pamela), Victor Bergeron (Gina), and Tiffaney Bergeron; her grandchildren: Olivia Candies (Dillan), Victoria Usey (Mark), Ashleigh Davis (Logan), and Alexandra Ibieta; her great-grandchildren: Presley, Palmer, Charley and Chandler. She is survived by her siblings: Sammy R. Zito, C. Mack Zito, and Patricia Zito Schexnayder (Don). Edith was preceded in death by her parents, Sam Zito and Ruby Zito Graham; and her sisters-in-law, Laura “Midge” Zito, Sue Zito, Wilma Spiers (Deceased Gerald), Sandra Heirsch (Deceased Alvin, Sr.), and nephew Sam “Frog” Zito. She has numerous nieces, nephews, relatives, and friends.

Edith was born in Sunray, Texas on April 17, 1940. Edith graduated from Warren Easton High School. She married Nicholas Bergeron on September 18, 1959, in New Orleans, LA. They lived in New Orleans, and both worked until they started a family. Edith was a wife and mother who was loving, caring, and a positive influence on her children. Edith was a highly creative and artistic individual with a wealth of information. She could take someone’s trash and turn it into a treasure. She and Nicholas liked going to the casino. She loved the beach and long walks collecting seashells from the water’s edge. She enjoyed the afternoon sunsets with seagulls flying and singing. She also loved spending time in her flower gardens and was good at it.

Edith’s loss is deeply felt by her family and all those who knew and loved her. Also, a special thanks to her daughter Tiffaney for taking such great care of her mother and father. Edith’s wishes were to be honored by her immediate family having a celebration of life ceremony.
