Auntie Ethel shared many things in common with my grandfather--a love of fun and love of family infused their lives. I have fond memories of this great auntie of mine. As a girl, I was impressed by how she always found the jackpot in the blueberry patch and quietly out-picked us all. Auntie Ethel taught us many card games, schooled us in cribbage, and kept us guessing about her next joke. My sisters and I will miss her big heart and easy laugh. Our sincerest condolences at this sad time.

Dear Weldon, Maxine, Earl & families....Our deepest sympathies to you all. Aunt Ethel will certainly be missed but at the same time provided so many good memories. She told a good joke better than any sailor, and she was always such a gracious hostess for us all. One particular memory we have is by the campfire at Uncle Bob's where she and Augie taught us the game "campfire". She no doubt is playing cribbage in heaven where she has earned that perfect 29 point hand by being that special person she was here on earth......See you on Saturday...Mark & Judy

Weldon, Earl, Maxine and families,
We are so sad at the passing of Aunt Ethel. She was a bright light in the family and we will miss her. Randy has fond memories of camping at Lake Antoine with your family. Fern always loved visiting Ethel and Helen there and seeing all their crafts. Aunt Ethel had an amazing sense of humor and was often the life of any family gathering. As our family continues to get smaller we console ourselves with wonderful memories and hope these will console you all too.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
Love, Randy & Fern Berger

I am sorry that I am unable to attend the services for Ethal. I have great memories of visits to her house over the years and of some great times spent here in Somerset, Alvin's home town. We missed seeing all of you at our last reunion. She is with God and her loved ones.

We extend our sympathy and love to our Appleton cousins. We have such fond memories of your mom and all of the crafts and good times she shared with us. It is those times we need to remember and be thankful for. Some of our rememberances are phrases she coined like 'tickle belly hill' (a hill in our neighborhood that really did tickle your belly when you went over it) and 'cousins by the dozens' (there were over 30 of us Sicard cousins). We loved hearing her stories and jokes but never could remember all of them so we could share them. All of these and many more memories we will keep in our hearts. Love to Earl, Maxine, Weldon and families.

Sending love and hugs to my cousins Earl, Maxine, and Weldon. I have many happy memories of when we were little kids and Uncle Alvin and Aunt Ethel camped out in the back yard at the cabin. Good times and laughter.
