JULY 2, 2011 -- If you look at one word at a time you say, “What?!” But it is easy to read the whole sentence, isn’t it?

Did I get your attention? I hope so because what I really want to do is to use this chance to Thank-You all of you for the flood of cards, phone calls and visits that I received through the month of May. They are greatly appreciated, and it’s nice to be remembered. I always believed that I was indestructible and it’s sure disappointing to find out otherwise. I wish everyone a healthy and happy summer and look forward to seeing you soon.
And don’t worry about the spelling! We all speak the same language. |
