Feb 19 - 1956 Dear Mrs. Walden:

 Thank you for your sweet note to me about my loss. Al was ill only a very short time

for which I am very grateful tho' that is all for which I feel grateful. I'm still here in San Antonio, but go home next week and will find that going home very hard.

 We have had very nice weather here in San Antonio, tho' a lot of Texas fared

badly as did a lot of Florida
