Etta Pink

Thinking of you especially when I go for swim in Lake Michigan. I always dedicate those swims to you, as I had never tried it until you showed me it was possible. And delightful. Like you. Love your spirit and example. Much love always, Mary M

I only met Etta in 2015 through my friend and neighbor Jayne Lilienfeld-Jones. On that one occasion I understood why Jayne so adored her aunt. Etta was indeed warm and witty. My condolences to the many people who will miss her.

Etta was my mentor, my dearest friend, and my shining light. Curt and I adored being with her. Watching her whiz from the doorway of the Hancock Bldg, impeccably attired, we would share another adventure or culinary experience in the world where she did her magic.
Calling her often to say, "do you see the moon" were minute moments that enriched our lives. She will always be within us. Every time we swim, breathe and open our eyes to let life in.....she will be within us forever.
