To all the Andrews family: My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you. My family was very close to the Andrews along with your wonderful grandmother whom my mother and aunt thought the world of. I spent a summer in your home babysitting and helping your mother out. She was just a wonderful person and I enjoyed her very much.

Aunt Kay was a most special relative. It never ceased to amaze me how she (and Uncle Tony) made me feel special amongst dozens of nieces and nephews.

My deepest sympathies and apologies for not being with you at this time. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Love always,

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. I knew Mrs. Andrews mostly through Ellen, my dear friend, who always spoke of her with love. I first met Catherine Andrews at a fashion show for her women's club that I attended with Ellen, maybe thirty years ago.
