Dearest Mike,
Bob Cheney and I met you only once but Fae kept us informed about your miraculous struggle with cancer which only just ended. I just battled death for the last two months in hospital but made it. Your dear mom, Fae, is my beloved friend but I have lost much memory and hope she can find me again among her many loved ones. Love from Diane (and Bob) Cheney in Arizona.
