Rick and family,
The art community will never be the same without Ebby. Her talent and extreme kindness to me always boosted me in trying times at MD Hall. She will be missed by all.

Rick & Family; So sorry about the loss of your mother. You talked a lot about her in our classes together but I learned so much more in her obit in the Capital. I can see where you got your artistic talents in ceramics! It was wonderful that you were able to work with her during your career. I have one of your mother's small ceramic pieces which I will treasure. Your mom had a long and wonderful life. My best to you and your family.
S, Peter Quinton

I remember Elizabeth and Richard Malmgren fondly attending my class at the Graduate Institute of St. John's College and I wish to send my most sincere condolences to their Family, and especially to their son, Rick, who was also a very fine assistant to the class.
I was very sorry to hear of her passing.

I remember Ebby Malmgren very well. We have one of her pottery pieces in our home. Ebby and I were in several seminars together, we both attended the St. John's College Graduate Institute, and each received an MA degree in liberal education.

I also remember her husband Dick. We had them over for dinner at our house in Annapolis. Our lives were joined for a while via St. John's College and the Mitchell Gallery. They are well remembered.
