For the last two years must have been for your mother a horrible period of frustration since she was no longer able to live a life of independence." He describes how she has been relieved of her pain and frustration at "no longer being able to use her God-given gift of being productive in the literary field in which she has secured for herself the immortality of an extremely beloved and highly appreciated author." He hopes that although her mother has passed they will stay in touch "and continue a relationship which I enjoyed with your mother so much over the years." Signed "Kurt".
