Ho un piacevole ricordo di Antonia Chistè (Etta). Nei primi anni 70 con la sorella Romana avevano intrapreso un viaggio attorno al mondo regalato dal figlio Sandro. Essendo prime cugine di mio papà, si erano fermate a Trento per poi andare al loro paese: Lasino (la passeggiata di san Siro la definiva il suo nirvana). Antonietta come la chiamavano era simpaticissima e aveva un modo di raccontare che riusciva a trasformare tutto in incredibili avventure. Ho ancora sulla mia scrivania un tagliacarte che mi aveva regalato...Conservo di lei e della sorella un ricordo intimo e affettuoso e ancora oggi in casa ci pare che Lethbridge sia vicino a Trento.

Our staff would like to extend heartfelt condolences to the family of Etta. We had the privilege of getting know Etta over several decades. She was one of our favorites! We loved her stories about Italy, her family, her garden and her swimming prowess! We admired and appreciated this wonderful lady. Rest in peace, Etta.
