Vale Edyth Langham-Goodwin OAM

Edyth Langham-Goodwin OAM was a truly remarkable woman and a great Tasmanian.

Edyth was an irrepressible promoter of all things Tasmanian, and in particular her local community, small business, the arts, thoroughbred racing and the Liberal Party.

Edyth was a strong advocate for women in politics and business, and there is no greater example of her passion to see more women in leadership roles, than her daughter, Vanessa.  

Edyth was a strong personality, with a great sense of humour and a touch of class. She will be greatly missed by those who knew her.

We extend our deepest sympathies to Vanessa and her family at this difficult time.
