Hello to the family of Etta. I just wanted to say I am very sorry for your loss. I only met Etta one time, but she seemed like a very kind person, especially under the circumstances that we met. I actually met Sean, Terry, and Pat for the first and only time that day. You all were wonderful as well. Even though we are distant family, I still think of you all often and I will keep you in my thoughts at this difficult time. I wish you all well, in your lives and with your own families. Again, I am so sorry for your loss and I will be thinking of you all at this difficult time.

Sincerely yours,
Connie Hall (Wolfe)
