To Ethel's Family, We have been next-door neighbors of Ethel for only 3 years. We never really got to know Ethel except for the occasional "hello" when she was out walking or on the telephone. When we did see her, she ALWAYS had a smile on her face and a big "hello"! May God guard your hearts and minds as you grieve the loss of your loved one.
