Dear Auntie Carol & Uncle Joe,
We’d like to send our caring thoughts and prayers to you and all your family.
Olive English is my aunt. When I was very little, I couldn’t say Olive, and it came out “Audie.” The nickname stuck, and she will always be my Aunt “Audie” in my memories. I have a million childhood memories of her — some are as ordinary as trips to the grocery store or laundromat, and some are as legendary as that time you were all “skunked out” of that cabin at Maloney’s Grove in North Bend! My favorite memory will always be that, many years later, she came twice with my mom to see me perform with “The Washingtonians,” the choir I used to sing with. My condolences and love go out to my cousins Carol, Gary, and Greg.
Love always, Michael
MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY
