Rest In Peace, Ethel. My prayers go out to the family for your loss. Ethel was a kind person and a helpful guide to me, at DE. May God give you all peace, as you share memories of her. Linda Ryan
So sorry Julie. Seeing you and your mom was always a good time. She is at peace now and will always be with you. Wish I could be there for the service. Love you all, Steve Fede
I loved working with and for Ethel at DE. She was always very supportive of me and had a great sense of humor. She will be missed. Kathy McLean
We regret that we are out west & unable to be there to celebrate the life of our dear Ethyl. Our hearts and prayers are with the family at this time of great loss. She is greatly missed.
My fondest memories are of our years together growing up on Brayton Road. My funniest memory is when Mrs. Furstenburg scolded me for standing on the couch while trying to get away from Snowball. So many memories of all the fun, but simple things we did. And your parents were my second parents. I am sad for your loss, and may reflecting on the memories bring much joy and peace to your heart.
We are slowly losing the group of excellent, dedicated teachers from that era. Ethel was a great teacher and a good friend and that cadre of teachers cannot be replaced. My condolences to her family and friends. Harriet & Ken(deceased) Bliss
Your mom will never be forgotten. She surely was special! ❤️
