May 10, 1934
Dear Sister:--
Sunday May 13th, will be mother [sic] day, so we don't have a mother this mother day, and I though [sic] as you have children and being a mother, I would write to you as you are next in line after I lost my mother (or course I have two other sister, but they seem like they are my children) Wish I was albe this day to say something that would be helpful to you as I know that you are lonely to-day. Will say that you have been a good mother and have reared a bunch of fine children and I am sure that when you pass on that these children that you leave behind will be a monument that will live on. and they can say as we can say that we had a good mother. May God richess [sic] blessing with you and the children is my prayer. Tell them that I love each and ever [sic] one of them.
Yours brother
Frank Wheatley
