Dear Dr. Swan:
This is an anniversary year. It has now been 20 years since my surgery. In many ways it seems to be only yesterday.
Life has been very good to me, I have three kids that have grown to adults without giving me a moments trouble like so many parents have had with hippies, drugs, etc. I now have four beautiful grandchildren, that he [. . .] to keep some young. Debbie my youngest is now in her first year at the University. I have a very good job as secretary for six doctors who staff our emergency room.
But most of all, thanks to you I have my very good health. Except for lossing[sic] Roy so early in life its all been good.
Traveling is still my hobby and I hope to get to Colorado

Sincerely
