My mother was the oldest of 5 children to a WWII Veteran and retiree of 42 years with Bethlehem Steel. She was always known as a pretty, yet humble girl with many skills and talents.
She was taken from this Earth at a very young age- too soon as far as I'm concerned. She wasn't there to see most of her grandchildren except for her oldest, and only briefly. She wasn't around when I needed advice on how to raise a family and to be a good parent and father.
She's been gone so long now I can't remember what her voice sounded like which makes me sad, but I know she is looking down on my family and I and smiling. And as long as she is in my heart, she is still here.

Injuries Fatal For Woman
A Richland Township woman died Friday of injuries she received in a traffic accident Wednesday in Indiana County. She was Constance J. Ensley, 42, of 341 Bloomfield Street, the driver. Mrs. Ensley died at 8 a.m. at Memorial Hospital, where she had been listed in critical condition since her admission.

The crash happened at 10:45 p.m. on Route 711 a quarter-mile west of Cramer, according to the state police at Indiana.

In addition to her parents, she is survived by her husband, James T., and a son, Brian James, Lancaster, Pa.
