Yesterday

I met Ethel when I started working at INC in 1997, and we have been friends every since.
She was such a strong, determined, caring , compassionate, understanding, loving, non judgemental and a great sense of humor. I know, I will never meet such a wonderful and amazing person, like Ethel ever again in my life.
I thank God for giving me such amazing and compassionate person to call a friend.
When we talked on the phone we could talk from anywhere from 2 to 6 hours , when I'd stop over. Just for a minute, end up like couple hours. She's was so easy to talk, I could talk to her about anything and everything without judgement.
I was blessed to have her as a very loving best friend and I love her with all my heart
I told her when it's my time and if I make it to heaven I want her to be there with my family to welcome me home because she was family.
I love you Girlfriend (NFE) Now, forever, eternity, (TTA) today, tomorrow, always,
I will be lost with out her.

My Aunt Ethel kept me strong! She was strong and now she can rest with her daughter and my uncle whom she loved so dearly. I love you Aunt Ethel.
