Dearest Gee. Got your Monday letter and Tuesday letter today. After I sent that one letter with the ribbon in it I wondered if it would go allright. Did you have to pay any extra on it?

Dearest Gee, Guess it’s high time I was writing you something of a letter. We are so busy we don’t know which end we are standing on. I am quite well except for a slight cold that I caught on the boat. Hope you are all well. Tell Dad and Mom I am still okayContinue reading “Sunday, August 1, 1943”
