Thomas W. Edge

Flowery Branch, Ga formerly of Grovetown, Ga.- Mr. Tommy Edge, 83, entered into rest on Friday, May 31, 2024.  

Tommy was known by most of his friends as “Edge” and he was a passionate fisherman and sports fanatic. He loved to root for Georgia Tech, The NY Yankees, Golden State Warriors and pretty much any team that was playing opposite of the University of Georgia. Tommy was also a huge golf fan and looked forward to The Masters golf tournament every year. While most of the people he loved didn’t agree with Tommy in regards to sports or politics, he was always  a pleasure to be around. He never let a day go by without calling and getting “the scoop” from his friends and family. Above all else, Tommy believed that nothing was more important than family and friendships.  He was extremely proud of his family and loved to spend time with them. Although, it should be said, his love for family never stopped him from beating them in a good ol’ game of cards. 

Tommy was preceded in death by his wife, Rosanna J. Edge, and his parents, Thomas W. Edge Sr. (Pete) and Frances Strader Edge.  He is survived by his children, Heather (and Keith) Elliott, and Nancy Edge; grandchildren, Bryce Edge, Austin and Anna Elliott and Zachary Lucas; and numerous nieces and nephews who loved him dearly. 

The family will receive friends on Monday June 17, 2024, from 1-2pm at Thomas Poteet & Son Funeral Directors, 214 Davis Rd. Augusta, Ga. 30907 (706)364-8484. Celebration of Life will immediately follow at 2pm.  Please sign the guestbook at www.thomaspoteet.com

The family would like to create a living Memorial Garden in honor of Tommy. In lieu of cut flowers, the family welcomes donations of live plants for the garden. These plants will create a lasting and beautiful tribute to Tommy that can be enjoyed by all.
