Edwina F.
Cummings
Feb 13, 1935 — Jan 10, 2026
Edwina Felicia Cummings, of Bristol and Tiverton, RI passed away peacefully on January 10, 2026 at the age of 90. Born in Fall River, MA on February 13, 1935 to Katherine and Joseph Serafin, she was nicknamed "Stormy" due to her bustling and determined spirit.
After graduating from Durfee High School in 1953, Stormy pursued a secretarial career before fatefully meeting and marrying the love of her life Charles "Chas" H. Cummings, Jr., in 1957 and settling in Fall River where they had two children, Charles and Ellen. Soon after, they built their dream mid-century modern home in Tiverton, RI, designed by Chas, who was a talented artist. They lived there for 20 years before moving to North Farm in Bristol, RI where they resided for 34 years before Chas's passing in 2019.
Stormy had a longtime career as a clerk for the Social Security Administration in Fall River. She was a kind guide to patrons, and was known for her terrific fashion sense and style. After retirement, she and Chas toured the world, where Chas captured pictures and painted watercolors, commemorating their adventures.
Edwina is survived by her children Charles H. Cummings III (Eddie Bellizzia) of Tiverton, RI and Ellen L. Cummings (Peter Ivaneza) of New Canaan, CT. She is also survived by her grandchildren: Julia Cummings (Miguel), Anya Doroz (Eric), Charles Cummings IV, Conrad & Lachlan Ivaneza, and great granddaughter Sophia Doroz.
She is predeceased by her five siblings, Ted, Helen, Nellie, Florence, and Freda.
Visitation with the family will be Saturday, January 17th from 10am to noon at Pocasset Memorial Funeral Home in Tiverton followed by interment at Hillside Cemetery.
