Margareth Nelson (kusinen til Patricias morfar Herbert Larsen) skrev i et brev til sin kusine Ruth Skøien i Oslo den 16.mai 1973:
...Did you hear that Anna's granddaughter was killed by her husband. I understand they lived in Iowa and he didn't work much so she divorced him. When the divorce came through he shot her and killed himself and left two little ones, 2 and 4 behimd. Renee, Anna's daughter is adopting them and she herself has 11 kids. It sure was a tragedy...
