Cecil J. Olmstead

Dearest Olmstead family,
I was finally able to fully read all of the articles on your Dad. He was quite accomplished and amazing though I remember Cecil personally as "Amy's Dad." I will always remember Cecil and Frances and appreciate all of the time spent at your Westport, CT home....especially when your parents were traveling Amy Louise! Kevin and I have you in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. You will always miss your Dad as I have discovered but .... he never...

Our family just got back from out of country where I had not access to my e-mail and heard about your loss. My prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Amy, Paul, Jay and Frank--So sad to learn about your Dad--How very many tennis games we enjoyed for so many years at FCHC and your home court--and so many other times together. I expect your Mom and Dad will be having some spirited doubles matches with Thora (Russell)and George(Grune) each of whom had passed away in the Spring of 2013. My love and sympathies to you and your families from old friend, John Russell

Your dad left quite a legacy, including some great kids. Our family is thinking of you.

Thank you dear soldier for serving our country & protecting us.We owe much to brave men like you.
A grateful American

I continue to pray for each of you during this painful time. With love, Nancy,rscj
