Edith Heitur

Edith Svetlana Heitur (nee Johanson) spent her early childhood between Estonia and Poland.  A WWII war refugee, she was displaced to Germany and left to start a new life in Montreal, Canada. 

Edith moved to Wilmington, Delaware after marriage where she lived for the remainder of her life.

Edith valued her Estonian heritage and the arts. She had a particular love of ballet and was a longtime sponsor of the Delaware Ballet Company. 

She is survived by her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. In keeping with her wishes, there will be a private memorial and no service will be held.
