I have a lifetime of sweet memories for I was at the house daily. She always greeted you with she sweet smile and always had a special treats. She loved her family an grands an always was a good listener and gave great advise. Back then it took a village to assist with the neighborhood kids a task she was willing to embrace an a lesson in faith too she also showed me an Deb how to sew. Wilkes Road lost our Matriarch an she will never be forgotten for her work here is complete. Please take you rest for we will miss you dearly.

To the family of Mrs. Ethel Abney,
We were saddened to learn of the passing of your dear loved one. Mrs. Abney has made an indelible imprint in the lives of us all who knew her, a positive role model for all who lived in the Greenview Community. May the love and comforting peace of our heavenly Father be with you in your loss.

To the family of Mrs. Ethel Abney,
Our prayers are with you in the loss of your dear loved one.
Mrs. Abney has been honored by our organization as one of the outstanding trailblazers in our Greenview Community. She was among those who built our community through personal sacrifices made during those early years of “Jim Crow”; yet who persevered with God’s strength, determination, honesty, and integrity. Greenview was where our families were bonded in “neighborhood togetherness”: the children all played and went to the same schools, and then went to church on Sunday. This is how your dear Mom, and all our parents taught us… to love God, and family; to be kind to one another, and respect those older than us… lessons that we learned and still carry with us throughout life.
May the comforting peace of our loving God be with you in your loss; may He bless you with beautiful memories of a life well lived, understanding that earth has no sorrow, that heaven cannot heal. Keeping you in our prayers,
Officers & Members of Greenview Reunion Foundation
