Even in first grade in Roslyn Heights, NY Valerie was special. Last week, gathering material for what might be a memoir, I found in my earliest notebooks I found, "In 1st grade I had a crush on Valerie Gladstone." She turned out to be much better looking than me and a better writer.

Dearest Val, the world has been set on fire since you left us. Discord practically every day. You wouldn't like it very much if you were still here, though I don't doubt you'd have plenty to say and write about it. Miss you, my friend.
