I worked with Eartha for 20 years at Texas A&M. She was a wonderful person. She ran the vivarium like it was her home. She will be missed.
My deepest condolences to the Seyfus family. I worked the Polls at Ben Milam with Ms. Eartha for years. Such a sweet lady. May you R.I.P. Prayers for comfort during this difficult time.
The love and sweet memories of your Mother shall be a strong hold in the days to follow. Keep Holding to God’s Unchanging Hands Delores and Family.
Dear family of Eartha,
Eartha took care of me during the mid-1960s and although I was only 4 and 5 at the time, I remember her dearly.
She positively shaped my life and views, and I wrote to her to express this a couple of months ago after all these years, but the mail came back undelivered. Now I realized that she had dementia and lived elsewhere. My friends in Bryan told me of her passing. She meant a great deal to many people in Bryan. She was a loving and caring and very good person.
May you find comfort and peace, and know that she had a big impact on me. I am sorry for your loss. Please accept my condolences.
With sympathy,
