Ethel was employed at the Holiday Inn on Kings Road for 21 years. She loved to travel, and to dance and there wasn’t many places in Cape Breton that her and Bud’s feet didn’t hit the floor. Her family meant the world to her and there wasn’t many family gatherings that she missed. Ethel was a wonderful mother, mother-in-law, sister and grandmother, who had a huge heart, a kindred spirit and a laugh that was contagious. She will be always loved and missed by all her family and friends.
“I hope you dance.”
