Obituary

Edith Campbell Lambright, a daughter of the late Willie Campbell and Sarah Johnson Campbell, was born February 18, 1918 in Moncks Corner, South Carolina. She departed this life January 19, 2012 at her residence. Edith received her education in the public schools of Berkeley County, SC. At an early age, she moved to New York where she continued her education in the field of nursing. She retired from St. Albans Naval Hospital after 40 plus years of dedicated service. Edith was a member of Calvary A.M.E. Zion Church, Jamaica, NY. She was actively involved in her church. She served as a Choir member and Usher Board member. She also worked with the Young People's Division (YPD) and the Buds of Promise Children's Choir. Upon returning to Moncks Corner in 1978, Edith rejoined Mt. Carmel A.M.E. Church and sang with the Choir until her health began to decline. In 1964, Edith was united in holy matrimony to Freddie Lambright. This union was blessed with seven children. Edith was preceded in death by her husband; children, Dorothy Johnson Bethea and Raymond Lambright; and son-in-law, Mathes McMillan. Edith was a kind and caring mother, grandmother, sister and aunt. She was known for her love of singing and the phrases that she often created - one of her favorite phrases being "Only God". She will be missed greatly by her family and friends. She leaves to cherish her loving memories: her children, Juanita J. McMillan, Marcella J. (Larry) Taylor, Cheryl L. (Ottia) Lewis, Derek Lambright and Eric (Adria) Lambright; siblings, Jean C. Rivers, Lewis Campbell, Harold Campbell and Dorothy C. White; son-in-law, James Bethea; sister-in-law, Mattie R. Campbell; twelve grandchildren, twenty-nine great-grandchildren, one great, great-grandchild; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends
