Dear Cousin Dennes,
Gabe and l will definitely miss Aunt Ethel. She was an amazing lady. I've often said that she was example who reminded us all about what family is all about. She was grateful for family and friends and never neglected to express that to us each time we were together or spoke by phone. She was kind, gentle, sweet, interesting, well spoken and so very thoughtful. She graciously and so lovingly carried the family torch as each of her siblings passed. We'll miss you Aunt Ethel, more than words can say. However, we know that you're now with Uncle Mitch and the rest of our family members.
Dennes, we're here for you always. Love, Annette and Gabe
