Thanks Tarheel. Can I assume those letters will be passed on to your children ? And maybe you'll write some letters of your own ?

One year at Christmas my mother typed up all of the letters that she and my father had exchanged during WW2. She lived in Devils Lake North Dakota and he lived in Duluth Minnisota. They exchanged several letters per week - that's how they courted. She edited them - made three copies for each of us kids and then burned the originals so that we wouldn't see the "personal parts". An heirloom for sure.
