Dear J.
I was sorry to hear of Dinky passing he was my favorite of the two boys.The old as well as the young are leaving here in record numbers.I am greatful for everyday God keeps me here.We may not be in the best of health or have evrything we want,but its a blessing to still be here,take care,remember weeping may endure for a nite but joy will come in the morning.
Love mama Mary

letter from a lover

8-23-83 Lafayette,Ind
Hi J.
I received your letters and read them over and over,The part about me laying next to my lover was wrong.The only lover I have is you.I would like for you to know that.
I think Thanksgiving would be a good time to come,or we might be able to see each other sooner,you will know more about your situation by then write me...you say that when you get your divorce,that if there was a chance for you and me to get together you would be here in a minute,well that the same way I think and feel The reason I never Married anyone was I always hoped I would see you again,sometime in my life,and now that has happened.I know things will work out,and I will wait on you.I think it was about twenty years ago somebody said that to me.I am going to wait on you.I hope it don,t take another 20 years.hell we will be too goddam old to enjoy it. Just a joke don,t rush things,take a little time.I am glad you had a nice time when you were here.I hope I was still about the same person you knew ,when you had last seen me.you haven,t changed much to me,it was just like riding in the White Lightning,only you have to add a few years.We have to keep in touch with each other by writing or calling.I don,t want to lose you.you know life is a little to short for that.You say you will come when I say.I say you can come when you are ready.I hope we work things out soon,that why I am writing to let you know it is for real No Play.
LOVE ALWAYS DINK
P.S. I will call again early
