To Ethel’s family:
We truly enjoyed Ethel when she visited Florida. So witty and a wonderful person. We received a lovely stained glass mirror for our wedding, which she made. It still hangs in our bedroom 20 years later. She will be missed.

Dear Paul, Tammy, Mark, Suzanne , Scott, Maggie and Scarlett
We are thinking of you at this very sad time. Heaven has gained a very special angel. The years passed too quickly.. Thankfully, we are left with some very happy memories.
Your mom was one of a kind. Intelligent, witty, kind, generous , energetic, and an incredibly gifted baker and quilt maker. Your mom loved a good joke and when she laughed her eyes twinkled. Without doubt, the absolute best fruit cake baker. It was a special treat she would send to her sisters. We treasure her beautiful quilts and all the time and love she put into each one. Sadly, I wish our our paths had crossed more often as we got older but our memories are deep.

Although I have only known Ethel for a few years, we became fast friends especially when discussing and admiring our quilts. She certainly was a perfectionist. She will be happy to join Pierre in Heaven. I will miss our little talks.

Although it's difficult today to see beyond the sorrow, May looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow.
Ethel was that person for me—steady, nurturing, and always there when I needed someone to lean on. She wasn't loud about her care, but you felt it in everything she did. She had a gift for making you feel safe. Her house was warm and welcoming, and always full of something good cooking.
