Saturday Night

Dear “Raymond,”

How’s my “Little Brother” by now? Fine I hope. Hope you and “Rafe” are having a good time minding the kids there these days. I hope you got your rubber question all settled for that Chevy by now. If you don’t, drop me a line and say so. I might be a few miles from home but I guess maybe I still can get you fixed up. You know I never stood short when it came to autos and accessories and parts. I guess those same guys are hoping I will be back one of these days again. Ha-Ha. Neither could live without the other I don’t guess.

Take good care of everything there for me now and you all be good little “kids” for me. Thanks for the nice box I got tonight.

Love and Kisses to you always. Bye now – I’ll be seeing you.

“Little Brother”
