Dear Hubert,

Tomorrow is your anniversary day and I know you are glad – glad because you are helping to make this a better world, a place where we can live sane lives, helping one another and sharing the things that make life worthwhile.

I wrote Beverly and sent her a little remembrance.  I know she has found many things to be happy over.  We were all so glad to get the news that you were safe and well.  I hope we will be able to hear from you quite regularly.

I haven’t much family news.  Everyone is so busy the letters are few.  Les and Dee have invited me to Fargo for Easter vacation.  I may go for a couple of days.  I’d like to get the big part of my defense schooling done that week.  I now have nearly 100 hours.  I like it – it’s interesting and different and I hope I can work at it this summer.

Aunt and Peter are about the same.  Aunt has her pain at night.  Your perscription [sic] seemed to help the most.  Christine was there when Ted wrote last.  He and Ev are busy with preparations to buy the house.  Jim called on me – says Uncle Oliph is getting along fine now.  Clarence is still at Ft. Snelling and ______ night.  Take good care of yourself. 

______ of love,
Judy
