My Wife Is in Heaven

Yesterday while emptying her drawers and discarding some clothes into the bag for charity I noticed the bag tip over and a 6x8 box fell out with some silk handkerchiefs. Beneath them was a poem I had sent her for valentines day many years ago and a letter dated May 1957 written by me to her and mailed to her home in Westbury NY. I was at the time temporarily assigned to an AFB in Manchester NH. It was the first time we were separated while dating. I was so lonesome and empty so the letter was filled wit love and adoration for her and a guarantee that we would spend a lifetime together. This letter of 62 years ago was kept by her thru 3 separate living addresses and a complete furniture refinishing where she had to store this letter on 4 separate occasions. She not once in our 61 years og marriage ever discussed this treasure of hers until she passed and it appears she directed the discovery by me.
