Survivors are her brother, James (Charlotte), and five nephews, Alec (Marygrace), Steve (Emilee), Tony (Christie), James (Michelle) and Michael Ott, fourteen great nieces and nephews, and a host of friends.
Ethel was a faithful Catholic and a member of Mary Queen of Heaven parish in Erlanger. For many years she arrived before Mass and greeted parishioners at the church door.

A Wonderful Sister
Ethel was a radical in many ways. She loved fried frog legs and liver and onions. A real beauty as a young girl, she was loved by many and a favorite of our father. She often told stories that demonstrated that fact. Once Dad bought her a purse she wanted and she never forgot it. Ethel loved her parish, Mary Queen of Heaven, and everyone in it. That’s the way she was.
