A proud and passionate Newfoundlander, Edythe was a cultural force in Newfoundland and Canada. Orator Shane O-Dea is quoted as saying "The New Newfoundland has both a father and a mother; Our father: Joe Smallwood who made us a province, who made us Canadians. And our mother: Edythe Goodridge who made us a people, who remade us as Newfoundlanders." In 1968, Edythe joined Memorial's Extension Community Development Division and she had sat on the National Capital Commission in 1972, raising the profile of the province in that capacity. She also helmed the Memorial University Art Gallery in 1974, and would go on to run the Visual Arts section of Canada Council. Edythe was also one of the individuals that worked to establish the Winterset in the Summer Festival, which continues to take place in Eastport, NL. She was the first executive director of the Newfoundland and Labrador Arts Council upon its founding in 1980. She invested her energy and drive in her work with the Association of Cultural Industries, the Heritage Association, the Canadian Radio and Television Commission, the Canadian Conference of the Arts, and the Canadian Art Museum Directors Organization. Edythe was also co-founder and president of the Newfoundland Historic Trust. She was inducted into the NLAC's Arts Hall of Honour in 1990 and also received an honorary Doctorate of Laws from Memorial University in 1998. In the last years Edythe has been sitting on the Rural Secretariat of Newfoundland for her region of Gander - New Wes Valley. As well as on the Town Council of Salvage and the committee to revitalize The Salvage, Fishermen's museum. Edythe leaves behind her two children, John (Toni) Goodridge of St. Margarets Bay, and Elizabeth Goodridge of Halifax, 3 grandchildren Ryan and Avalon Adams and Isabella Goodridge. She is survived by her sister Mary(Ed) Becker Guziak of Hurley, New York, and brother William Roger (Alice) Ryan, of St. Augustine Florida, nieces, nephews and countless friends and associates.

Autumn Rain (Mary Frye)
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in
the morning's hush,
I am that swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.

He has one surviving sister, Beulah Power, Mount Pearl and sister-in-law Phyllis Simmons, Corner Brook. During the last two years he resided at the Silverwood Manor in Kippens with his wife Mercedes. While there, he enjoyed the care of the wonderful staff and his personal caregivers. He made many new friends, particularly his table mates, and referred to the Silverwood as his home. His entire working career was in the employ of the Imperial Oil Company from which he retired in 1982. His postings took him to Stephenville, Gander, Stephenville Crossing, Deer Lake, the Northern Peninsula and finally back to Stephenville Crossing in 1961. There he particularly enjoyed serving his customers in Bay St. George and Bay St. George South. He was often referred to as "the oil man" and fondly reminisced about his many days working at the plant and sometimes delivering oil on the trucks and stopping in to his customers homes. At his request cremation will take place and a private family service will be held in his home town of Whitbourne, NL. There he will be laid to rest with his parents, George and Mary Simmons.
