My mom (Patricia Doherty-Collins) was so excited to have been reunited with Ethel (her aunt and mom's sister) after 70 years. This occurred a few years ago and I remember how excited mom was to meet Ethel and the rest of her family in MN. Ethel sounded like a wonderful soul who will be missed. I wish peace to the family and friends who were touched by Ethel.

Sorry to hear of your mom's passing. She lived a long life. Although it is years since we seen your mom , my mom and aunt Fern often spoke of her. We remember being at her place in Mn and when you came to Canada for a visit.
You have many years of memories, cherish them
