I am so sorry to hear about Ms. Ethlyn. My father and mother is Edd and Grace Thigpen and she thought the world of my father. Everytime she would see me she would just brag about my daddy and she was the sweetest woman anyone would every meet. I thought so much of her and she will be truly missed. Heaven has truly gained an Angel. My thoughts and prayers are with you her family.

My sincere prayers to the family of Ms. Ethlyn. Many memories surround me when I think of her and Mr. Bill at the store in Higgston. We were just a big family bound with love. May God bless you all.
