Elizabeth married my cousin Otis. Immediately we got a long and shared a lot of things in common. We especially bonded over politics and Ed Sheeran. We met him a couple of times together. I will always remember her laugh, enthusiasm for creativity, and her humor.

We will make sure her girls are loved and taken care of. They are amazing. Otis is such a great dad.
