Edith was the most athletic of the "Keathley Girls" from the time she was born - active in sports to the point that she was able to convince her brother and his friends to let her play on their baseball team. She had many friends, several very close ones who remained her friends all of her life. After graduating from Hillsborough High, she went to work at Kress Department store, and later married Charlie Mason.

She administered the FBI secretarial services for many years, and she and Charlie retired to their home in Lutz. After Charlie's death, Edie continued to live there, active in bridge parties and played tennis regularly. In fact, she played tennis just a few days before her death.

ALWAYS an animal activist and protector, she had a number of "colorfu"l pets through the years.
