Aunt Ethel was an awesome woman. Her faith was a beacon to me even when I did not want to believe or follow. She was a leader of so many important things in my life, my wedding, my sons baptism, and my dads memorial. I could never have made it through these events without her love and support. She will be missed here in our world beyond measure but the angels are singing their blessings as she enters our lords gates. May his love and comfort be with you as you grieve her loss and celebrate her life.
love,
sarah woosley,lucy dawson and family

You loved me for me which meant the world to me cause sometimes my actions weren't the greatest. I love you my dear mother-in-law - grandmother to my sons, Michael and Mason.
