It is fascinating. More letters than I'll ever get through. Some are in Dutch and I cannot read them. Mom was the only one of 6 siblings to leave her home town to marry her newly minted preacher love. Letters flew back and forth and she saved every one. In the end, we found her beautiful cedar chest full of them. What a treasure. I didn't need the chest and no one else could take the letters. Perfect!
