Come with me as I meet my Mother through this series of letters, she died when I was 6 months old and this is my very first real glimpse into her world, who she was, who she wanted to be and how she loved my Father.
A collection of 36 letters hand written by my Mother Joyce at University of Denver and sent to my Father Earl at University of Colorado Boulder when they were first engaged in 1952. The letters span from September 1952 - January 1953. My Mother died from Breast Cancer in 1971 at the age of 40. The original language of the letters is read intact to maintain the integrity of the authenticity of her words, 1952 is a very different time culturally and economically.

Letter 4 Part 2 09/30/1952 Bonus I Love You
A bonus surprise upside down on the back of one of the pieces of paper says, I love you, sweetheart. In fact, I love you more each minute I sit here and think about you and think about how good it would feel if I could hug you now. I think that was like, so when he first opened it up, that's the first thing he saw.
