Aug l8/92
Dear John & Patrica:
I am still sharing the planet with you.
My Birthday was on Friday Aug 14/92.. My nephew Henry in
Finland is the same day. Also Mrs Nellie Willett, my
neighbor, who helps me with shopping.
(Napoleon was born on Aug 15. He came to a bad end) I
exchanged faxes with Henry's children. Helena, about age l2
and William age 7, I inclose a copy of their fax.
My sister Dorothy's illness and death set me back a lot.
I am doing better now except for my left leg which was
injured.
I had a wonderful Birthday party. There were 7 of us.
All bright people. Margaret Paulo, from Fiji was a big
help. She comes most days. A great worker.
Chas Ross Perkins, an engineer, keeps all my machinery
working. The computer or any carpentry. Also the car.
He helped with the party.
One guest brought 2 bottle of champagne. That did something.
I find that if one brings some fine people together and
feeds them, things can sparkle. It was a good dinner
I will inclose an article that I wrote called MAD WORLD.
Henry is doing well in the coffee business. He also sells
flavored coffee and flavored tea. He was here this year,
with his family. He hopes to come every year.
My tomato crop is fine. I give some to other people.
Good crop of lemons. Figs will ripen in the late fall.
I have happy memories of my visit to your lovely home and
the tour you gave of your college.
I am writing this on my computer. I love it.
Hoping that you and your loved ones are well and reasonably
happy.
With affection and admiration from your cousin Robert.
