She attended two different rural schools: Swan School and Grand Ravine.
After school, Ethel started work as a Nurse’s Aid at Norquay Hospital.

Ethel and Lawrence moved to Regina in 1960. Lawrence worked at the Regina General Hospital as an X-ray Technician. They moved to Moosomin in December of 1962.

Ethel was employed as a part-time clerical worker at Moosomin Union Hospital from 1975 to 1997.

She was a super cook and baker, winning awards for her homemade bread.

Ethel was active in the Trinity Lutheran Church since 1963. She was involved with the executive of the Moosomin Music Festival. She instilled the love of music into both sons. She and Lawrence sacrificed a lot so both could study piano and trumpet.

Ethel enjoyed many years of camping in the provinces of Saskatchewan and Alberta.
