I have fond memories of both Bill and Ethel. When I was a kid we'd frequently all get together at my grandmothers home for Sunday dinner. It was a time when the Fiala kids and their spouses would exchange the latest gossip and share in a wonderful home cooked meal. The last time I saw aunt Ethel was in 2006 when I brought my mother back to Winnipeg to see her, her brother Nelson and sister Rose. Time flies and this generation is waiting its turn. Love you aunt Ethel and uncle Bill - Posted by: David Warrilow (nephew) on: Feb 28, 2024
