My dear John:
I was very glad to receive your note and to know that you are well enough to be going to Norfolk, Virginia for Christmas. I have thought of you so often the last two years and have wondered how you are Mary were getting along. I am much relieved that you are now back in the United States.
I have been in Eugene since the first of July. My son Sam lives at 4440 Garfield Street, N.W. Washington, 7, D.C. I found Washington very unsatisfactory for me this summer and am hoping that Sam will be back in Cambridge soon and then I can see something of him and his family.
Have you any reason to think that you will be coming to the Pacific Coast this spring. If so I hope you will give me a chance to see you. I could meet you anyplace on the coast. I would have to know ahead so that since I am a civilian, I could get a reservation. If you could stop in Eugene that would even be better.
Give my best wishes to Mary and Dolly.
Yours as ever,
Gertrude Bass Warner
