Ethel "Justice" Rife

My sweet Aunt Ethel went home to be with Jesus on May 2, 2015.  She was my mom's sister.  As soon as I am able I will share more photos of her.

I met "Gran" when I was fifteen years old.  A year and half later I married her son, Tim and for the last 38 years she has been a second mother to me.  She went home to be with Jesus on April 8th, 2015 and while I don't cry for her, my heart hurts for my loss.  I know that to many people the word "In Laws" means someone you dread being around but Gran was truly my best friend and while she is not a blood relative to the Hinkles and Justices, she is just as much family as anyone.
