Ethel married Kurt Wolff in 1992 and they spent 23 wonderful years together traveling the world and making their home finally in Lincoln, CA.

Ethel lived life fully. She was a glamorous, elegant lady who was so good at playing Hearts she would often "shoot the moon" twice in one game. She spent many years breeding and raising German Shepard dogs and owned several National Champions.
