Doris' advice to my Mom (her sister) in 1935

To my cousins Charlie and Donna, I extend my sincere condolences on the loss of their Mother. I was reviewing an Autograph book my Mom had in high school and the only entry she had from a family member was from Doris and her advice was simple and significant: be true to yourself. I've attached a copy of what your Mom wrote.
