in pencil MacDonald, Dorothy [1976]

Dear Jack and Gladys: I have put off writing because there is just

no words I can say that will express the sorrow I feel at your losing Jean. To be old, ill is one thing but to lose a young one and to have to witness six months of suffering - then the Holidays come and somehow one is expected to put on a happy face, when their heart is full of sorrow! Well with your faith in God your many friends - somehow you'll pull through and it looks to me like your grandsons are doing very well.
