Ethel’s love and care of her family always came first. We will miss her gentle strength, thoughtful counsel, and beautiful smile. She was young at heart and connected to all members of our family, regardless of age. Mom loved her nursing career, caring for pediatric and elderly patients with a unique touch. In her ‘spare time’, she was a skilled gardener, reader, knitter, and cook. In every aspect of her life, she lived her faith in the Lord, and her devotion was an example to all her loved ones.
Final arrangements have been entrusted to the care of the Pilon Family Funeral Home and Chapel Ltd., 50 John Street North, Arnprior where visitation will take place on Wednesday, May 8th from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. A Funeral Liturgy will be celebrated in the Pilon Family Chapel on Wednesday morning at 11 o’clock. Reception to follow. In memory of Ethel, kindly consider a donation to the Alzheimer Society of Lanark County or the Almonte General Hospital Foundation
Special thanks to Dr. McGarry, and the nursing staff at the Almonte Hospital for their exceptional care and compassion. They were truly remarkable.
