Etiquette expert Elizabeth Post died on Saturday. She was 89.
She was the granddaughter-in-law of the legendary Emily Post, but Elizabeth was an expert in her own right. Besides revising Emily's book five times, she wrote several books of her own and had a Good Housekeeping column for 35 years.
Condolences can be sent to the Emily Post Institute in Burlington, Vermont. Notes should be hand-written; pre-printed condolence cards are never acceptable.
