My beloved Aunt Ethel was a very, very special woman. I am so thankful to her for always sharing with me so much of who she was - - a beautiful woman inside and out.
One "gift" I will always treasure is a party she hosted for my graduation from the University of Pittsburgh. A huge entourage arrived from Harrisburg to celebrate and she made sure this day was special.
I will miss my visits with her whenever I head to Pitt for football games - - it won't be the same. Fortunately I have many pleasant memories and the precious family history that she shared.
Thank you for loving me as only you could,

No time on earth is long enough to share with those we love or to prepare our hearts for good-bye. Don't think of her as gone away, her journey has just begun. May you find peace in God's promise of eternal life.

I helped provide in-home services for Ms.Cookie but, we were more than just case manager/consumer. She was a like a second Mom. I just loved Ms.Cookie and I will miss her dearly. My sincere condolences to her entire family.

Rest in peace Aunt Ethel, I remember visiting you and family in Pittsburgh and always enjoyed spending time with you in Harrisburg. Glad we were able to remain in touch through exchanging cards and pictures.

With deepest sympathy to the family during your time of sorrow. Psalms 46:1 says: God is for us a refuge and strength during this difficult time and May God grant you the comfort to endure.
