Hi Daddy, I love you, you have two grandsons now, Ronnie (named for you) is in college now and Micheal is in Junior High. We live in Texas, but you knew that because I know you are looking after us. Daddy, I'm sick, really sick ... I hope to see you soon, be looking for me. I look like you and I remembered you loved me. I still have that baby doll.

Your little angel
