To LaVerne, Skippy and Tony
To say my condolences on the passing of your Mother seems so inadequate, The passing of Aunt Eunice is truly monumental for this family, our family, the Marshall/Smith family, To say she is or will be missed seems not enough for such a grand lady. She is at peace now in the company of all those who have gone before her, May God ever bless each of you. Please stay in touch. With much love, your cousin Linda Smith, The Smith Family Aunt Etta, Linda, Thulani, Shani and Avery. [email protected]

To the Ricks Family:
I was saddened to hear of your mother's passing. Mrs. Ricks will forever be a part of the collective memory of HI, the only person I remember seeking for help in the Bookstore, both as a student and again when returning as part of the faculty...I also think of our shared upbringing as Episcopalian, and the warmth she displayed during the times I would visit St. Augustine's church. May your good memories sustain you, and may God continue to keep you and family in the palm of His hand.

As time passes, and you return to life's routine, you will find comfort in memories of your mom. Hold them close, laugh and smile often. You were wonderful neighbors in our little 'village'.

Sidney and Tuesday, I was certainly saddened to hear of the passing of your beloved Mother. I know that her three kids loved her, more importantly she knew it. As you remember her remember the great times you had. I certainly will remember being a little short in the Bookstore and getting that smile. Then when I "grew up" and would say to her you don't remember me and she would remind me that I was one of those football players that she had to remind that I didnt need a wool coat in September. Some of you knw the real story:)

When I think of "Hampton Institute" treasures, or visit my "Home By The Sea", warm thoughts of Mrs. Ricks are always near. What a beautiful and caring person. Her warm presence, the compassionate contributions and service to our campus life, helped make it truly, a "Hampton Family". I share your loss. With My Deepest Sympathy, HW
