Thank you for your kindnesses to me Mrs. Chakarian. You taught me to cook Armenian foods and I moved on from there! I'm still clumsy, but I now grow herbs and will try to cook just about anything. I loved your kitchen when people were visiting (always happy)and I thank you for letting me into your home. I know you are somewhere so much happier than here, but I know you'll keep Grace and your other daughters close by forever.
