Dear Pat, Bo, Mike and Kim,

So sad to receive the news. I will miss his phone calls about our ATW days and his trying to persuade me to become a Nationals fan. My love and condolences to you all.

May you rest in peace my darling Woolsey, mentor of mine when I was 21, freshly graduated from college. You taught me how to write and photograph. We had long talks about absolutely everything. You were kind and took me oh so seriously. More than that, you celebrated who I was and helped me become the person I am today. You adored your dear wife Pat and your children. How lucky they are to be loved by you, even still, even forever. A beautiful person, a beautiful life. xoxoxo Liza
