Additional Notes
"Dear Weez, Do you realize I haven't heard from you for a long time? Even a card would do. Did Pam get my Valentine? Aunt M. hasn't been feeling so well. Her last Cardiogram was negative. Dr. Parker feels her chest and arm pain are due to tension and nerves. I'm saving the womens sections for when you come to see me. If you get them in time now, you'd probably bee too busy to read them, anyway. Nothing new at the office. Let me know how all of you are. Love to all, Home They are now having as much snow in New England as before. The wedding will not be till after Mike's basic training. When?"
