Dear Melissa,
Thank you for writing and letting me know that you are wearing Delvin's MIA bracelet. I had a granddaughter graduate from CSU last Dec. 19. She wears her Uncles bracelet also. I don't because it just hurts to much. I guess I am just too tender hearted. I just can't get over the loss of Delvin. His daddy was pretty sick and when we got the word of his death, then my husband got worse and I lost him in 1975. I had two sons. Then in 1976 Elroy was killed in a tractor-train accident. So I lost both my boys and my husband. Then I met my husbands cousin. He had just lost his wife. We were both lonesome so we married. He taught English in High School in Mt. Edgecuma, close to Sitka, Alaska. I just loved it up there, took off a lot of my troubles and loneliness. Then when he retired we moved back to my farm in Kersey. Then all my sorrows returned. I would love to sell my farm and get away from it all again. Sometimes I just want it all to end. I have two wonderful grandchildren. My oldest son was married, but Delvin never did. My grandson is married and they have an 8 month old son. So it makes me feel older I have a great grandson. I think the world and all of him. He is so sweet. Thanks for your letter, I am glad that you are wearing Delvin's bracelet, Take care Mrs. Moorhead |
