"What do you know?" was a phrase I heard Ethel say and now have associated it with her. Well, I'll tell you what I know about Ethel. She was someone I will never forget. I was in a position to be closer to Ethel in her last years when her daughter, Ellen, moved her to Texas to provide her with a safe and close location to her. She was fiercely independent and did not ask for help. She always held her head high and stood straight. She was very observant, articulate, humorous and very very much the fashionesta in the best of taste! When others around her needed help or assistance she was the first one to sound the alarm or lend a hand. She always greeted me with a smile and a hug. I am sure she is providing fashion assistance in whatever realm she now resides!
