So sorry to hear of Ethel's death. She was a sweet and lovely child when she visited and lived with Aunt Lessie in Rock Hill.

To Ron and all family members, I wish to offer my love and prayers. Mrs. Clifton was a beautiful woman I first had the honor to meet when I was a seven year old kid. Her warmth, kindness, and humor have left an indelible impression in my heart. She cared deeply for all around her. The world has lost a bright spirit. All our love, Rob, Sherry, and Sean

To the Clifton and Heath families.



I was very sorry to learn of the passing of Ethel Heath Clifton. We played together some as children on Dogwood Road in Pierpont. I am sure she will be sorely missed.
