I just heard of Grandma's passing, and wanted to express my deepest sympathy to your family. She was wonderful and classy lady and a heck of a worker. I am so glad I had the privilege to work for her. She will truly be missed. Cassie

To my dear childhood friends..Aunt Ethel has gone to be with Mike & Joe. I have such wonderful memories of growing up with all of you & the good, clean fun we had just being kids. The last time I saw Aunt Ethel, she was radiant & that is how I will remember her.

May God be with all of you & grant her eternal peace.
