In Memóriám SISTER M. EDITH NEMETH ELIZABETH TWR, PA — The Association was saddened by the death of Sister M. Edith Nemeth, SDR. Sister Edith, 81, died Jan. 13, 2013, in Divine Redeemer Motherhouse, Elizabeth Township. She served for 58 years as a Sister of the Divine Redeemer and was a gifted artist and art instructor. Her paintings were displayed throughout the United States and Europe, and she served as director of Penn View Art Center in Elizabeth for 32 years until retiring in 2008. She was also a writer and author, her best known work being her autobiography--My Life in Spinach Green: Life of a War-Torn Family, the Némeths—which recounted her life in Hungary and her family's struggle for freedom. She was born Dec. 29, 1931, in Cegled, Hungary, the daughter of the late Louis and Maria (Konya) Nemeth. The family arrived in America in March 1949. She joined the Sisters of the Divine Redemer in 1954. She earned bachelor's degrees from both Madaille College and Carnegie Mellon University and a master of fine arts degree from CMU. She was extremely proud of her Hungarian heritage and created laces, prints and tapestries in the Hungarian tradition. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her two brothers, Louis and Béla, and her sister, Magda Dulk. She is survived by her sisters-in-law, Nancy Nemeth and Iboly Nemeth; and nieces and nephews. A Mass of Christian burial was celebrated Jan. 18 in Divine Redeemer Chapel. Burial was in Divine Redeemer Cemetery. May she rest in peace.
