To the Baskin Family. Ethel has been a special part of our lives. As we all know she loved to travel. As some will remember the Travel Club we had. She also enjoyed camping. When we talked with her on many occasions, she always talked about what wonderful times we had at the campground. We will definitely miss her laughter and smiles. We will keep each and everyone of you in our Prayers. Tyrone, we know she loved you but God loved her Best.
