Reserved for Patrick Cullen I got a letter from Alice yesterday and she told me the sad news about your father passing away. I really don't know how to write this letter, because I want to make you as happy as possible and still tell you how sorry I feel for you. I can't realize how hard it is to [illegible] from one you loved so, but I do know that some day I will be confronted with the same tragedy. We know not when or how it will be, but I always figured that we should be ready for it at any time and take it in the best way possible. I was thinking last night how things have changed in the past year. I didn't have a worry in the world and I don't think you did either. I didn't realize that things could change in suck a hurray
