I just learned of Ethel's passing, and wished to express my deepest sympathies to her family. She was a wonderful woman that I was lucky enough to have for a neighbor, and I will always treasure the visits we shared. Mary Lou's devotion to her mother was an amazing example of what every mother wishes for. Please know that you are in my prayers.
