Hi John, how are you holding up? I have not had news from you in quite a while. I, too, miss Marge. Jan and I talk about her every so often. I found our friendship doves I had put away when she left us. I have put them up on a shelf now, so I can think of her when I see them. I hope you are doing okay. I don't have updated contact information, so please write to let me know you are okay.

All the best to you, my friend, from Jan and I.

Well, I lied again. I have not written you since last November. I apologize. But I have visited you at the cemetery once or twice (LOL). By the way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Today would have been your 64th, and we would have gone to the Barnsider tonight to celebrate. Well, I want to remind you that the hole in my heart keeps getting bigger. I love you and miss you. Thank you, and I will try to write more often. Love, your husband and best friend, John xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

HI KID!!!! First, I apologize for not writing you since August. However, I know that you are aware that I think of you all the time. Well, I wraped it up at work on 10/31, but went back to Albany last week just to button up a few things (and visit some of our old places - Barnsider, Butcher Block, etc.). Get this - CARMINES IS CLOSED! It happened all of a sudden - I had a drink one night with Mike the bartender and he told me the story. Too bad, you and I loved it there, and I had many...

Hi Kid!!! Have been thinking of you a lot lately. I really miss our days at home together, and especially our "cuddle dates". We should have done that more. The problem always was that you were too good to me (this is really true)!! Still working part time from home, but I think I will resign in a couple of months after I get the stuff in progress done. Well, take care special one, and I will try to write more often. Will visit you later today. Remember, I love you MORE!!! me ...

Hi Kid!!! Well, today would have been your birthday. I won't say how old, but you are 3 years younger than me, and I am 66 - LOL!! I want to say happy birthday to you, and thanks for all the wonderful 39.5 years of memories. I still love you a lot. I am doing o.k. I guess. Well, take care and I hope to see you some day. I will visit you at our grave site in about an hour and say hello and happy birthday again. I miss you so much. Your husband and best friend, John xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

Hi Kid!!! Well, I moved into the apartment with LOTS of help from Skip and Sharon. I sent them a little something to compensate for their time (and Justin's), and their expenses (overnight in Syracuse). I bought dinner at Julies, and they loved it (or, said they did - LOL!!). Also, someone hit my car in the lot, but the girl who did it told me and I am getting it taken care of. Same old me - LOL!! Well, I miss our life and continue to worship my memories of the 39.5 years with you...

Hi Kid!! I apologize for not writing before. I have not felt very well for a while (no excuse). The Myrtle Beach trip was real nice (as best as could be without you). Well, I sold the house to Jody, and I will be moving to Syracuse in a week or two in the same place as Ted. I hope I feel better there. I will periodically visit Albany to see people, and I am going to try to keep the job part time for as long as I can. I PROMISE that I will write more often. You know I have been...

Hi Kid!! Just a note to say that I love you and miss you more than ever. Too bad about Maureen - both her and Larry went way too soon, the same as you. Well, going to Myrtle Beach for a week tomorrow with Ted. I will find a computer and write you - I have a few things to tell you. Take care, and I will write soon. Your husband and best friend, John xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

Hi kid!! Just a note to say that I apologize for not writing in a while. I will do so shortly. But, I need to remind you that I still love you more than ever, and telling you how much I miss you is impossible. Well, I will write you again SOONER LOL!! Take care special one, and remember, I love you!!! Your husband and best friend, John xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox
