 Ethel was active in the community of Granville Center as a member of the Anglican church and the community hall.  She was well known for her baking abilities most notably her molasses cookies and sugared donuts which she shared with family as well as neighbors who dropped by. She had a love for nature; she loved walks to the river and hikes up to the family camp.  She enjoyed afternoon visits with family friend Donna, who lived across the field from her family home.          

Lastly, the family would like to thank Saunders Rest Home in Bridgetown where she spent 2 years and Annapolis Nursing Home where she spent the final 11 years of her life. Staff at both facilities were kind and caring.
