Sebrell – Edith Britt Fekete died peacefully at Churchland House with her family by her side on February 2, 2023. She was a faithful Christian southern lady, the glue of her family and a force to be reckoned with. She was proud to be the wife of a Southampton County farmer and World War II veteran for 68 years. Her beloved husband, Johnny Fekete, preceded her in death and she mourned his absence daily.

Upon her move to Churchland House she became a zookeeper for squirrels and a bingo wiz, often abandoning visitors at game time.

Edith loved her family fiercely. Left to cherish her memory are three children, Margie Cutright (E.J.), James Stephen "Stevie" Fekete and Mark Fekete (Elaine), granddaughters, Margaret Anne Smith (Michael), Patricia Davis (Ben), Christy Fowler (Pete) and Mary Alice Fekete, grandson, John Mark "Jack" Fekete and greatgrandchildren, Grace, Ellen, and Ben Davis, Wyatt Smith, and Addison and Alexiah Fowler.
