Condolence: I had the honor of interviewing Etta a long time ago, for some school article I was writing (CCCC.) Her passion and knowledge was so enormous, she was intimidating. I looked up to her all these years. Shocked to see her obituary. I still expect to see her make the paper for her activism. Thank you for everything you've done, Etta.

Condolence: I first met Etta when I lived next door to her in West Dennis (in the big Victorian home.) She was always a unique character, full of life, full of ideas, with a strong moral compass. I was fortunate to work with her later in life through our arts and cultural promotions on the Cape - and she was always a strong supporter of the fragile and beautiful place we call home. I will miss her.

Condolence: Etta's passing is a loss for all who share her vision for a better community, state, nation and world. I have known Etta for decades, having served as a Democratic State Committee (DSC) member since 1976. When Etta was elected to the DSC, I found a "kindred spirit", sharing what is best in politics and life. Always, I will remember the joy of being in the presence of Etta!

Condolence: Dear Etta, So many memories, so many journeys. The bush trips, Opal festivals and then lazing about enjoying a good cheese, wine and laughs. Will miss the Democrat versus Republican debates, and your passion for common decency. Your individual personality is irreplaceable and we will carry your memory in our hearts forever. Your favourite lookout we will rename in your honour

Condolence: My Dear Etta, You have touched me in so many ways that you will always be a light of hope and magic in my memories of you. Most of all, as I weep for you, I remember your shining smile and your incredible love and compassion towards life. I am so happy that my husband and children got to know you before your journey with cancer, which true to being you, that you took on with an unimaginable force and grace for living despite what life throws at you.

Condolence: I met Etta through Democratic Party activities on Cape Cod. She was not only a lovely artist, but a lovely human being as well. She was a faithful feminist, as am I, and she will be so missed!

Condolence: Oh , my Etta. My heart is so heavy to hear of your passing. I so enjoyed our time together with Barbara when we chatted and laughed. You always made me feel warm and welcome and not just a customer. I always cherished my visits at the store. Your artistic abilities and your passion in whatever you touched to do will forever be admired by me. Stephen and I wish to tell you that we shall meet again. Farewell for now, dear Etta. My love and hugs. P. S. I will never forget you letting me “ visit” a piece you so graciously let me pay off little by little. 😌

Condolence From: Stephen Driscoll
Condolence: My Ms. Ettaleh! We were buddies. In addition to being from "down south" in Massachusetts, we were Democratic State Committee members together, both serving in the 2000 Electoral College - " shondeh that election!", we hung out together in Philly at the 2016 national convention even sharing meds, we were both lovers of flashy bling, we yakked yiddish with each other go figure, and we mutually commiserated about our battles with The Big C. I visited her last summer and we joked about who would win the race to die first: "I'm gonna croak first! No you're not, I AM! You always try to one-up me! Shut up and try on this ring!" Morbid yes, but it made us laugh til it hurt. I love you and I will miss you, my Ms. Ettaleh.

Condolence From: Mark DiSalvo
Condolence: Oh Etta. Etta captivated me the moment we met at a Democratic State Committee meeting with her larger than life personality, demand that I support the issue of the moment (long ago forgotten) that she was advocating, and a strong suggestion I contemplate buying some of her jewelry. I, of course, did both - and never regretted our decades of friendship. Etta carries on in full force from a more welcome place. Mark DiSalvo
