Chouinard MacDonald Obituary
Ethel will be remembered for her sense of humor which garnered admirers as old as 95 and as young as 20. She loved good books and bad movies and good food that was bad for her. She is survived by a daughter, Patricia Verrill and her husband Anthony of Brooklyn, CT, a son Michael Chouinard of Johnston, and her biggest fans, granddaughter Elizabeth and ex-husband Richard. She was also adored by her granddaughter Tara (deceased) as well as her nephews and niece. A memorial will be held at Richards Pub in East Greenwich, RI on Sunday, June 29, 2008 beginning at noon. Friends and loved ones are invited to bring their memories of Ethel. In lieu of flowers kindly send donations to the National Kidney Foundation, www.kidney.org.

Dear Ethel may have been small of stature but she was a larger than life character. I will surely miss her recounts of her comical experiences, as only she could relay them. How lucky she was to have enjoyed much loving care from her daughter, Patricia, and to have known how loved she was by so many. Miss you, Munchakin. Much love, Lesa, et al.

Sorry to hear of Ethels Death. I met Ethel in 1989, when we drove to Rhode Island to spend some time with nan and pop Forward. Ethel made us all feel welcome and took us under her wing and make us feel at home. Two years after she came to newfoundland with nan Forward and our frendship continued through the years. She was a very thoughful person and i loved her dearly.Ethel and my husband Clarence always carried on with jokes and stories. Now they can tell there stories together once again. My thoughts and prayers go out to you.

Ethel was a very special person, loved her family very much and proud of their accomplishments. Ethel was such a comfort to her friends in bad times, offering to help out if she could and so full of joy at the good times. I am one that will miss my dear friend, her wonderful e-mails and now and then a phone call.
Love you Ethel.
