Maude Griffin to Dorothy and John Griffin / Ogden, UT
This envelope and contents I found yesterday stored away in a box. How it ever got away from those I gave you when you were here, I never will know. How I wish I could read them all now but my eyes refuse to do my bidding. I found several boxes yesterday so you may receive some more envelopes like this one. Some may not be anything you wish to keep, but you both have always been so complimentary to each other that I think both of you, if you have time, will enjoy reading them.
And please, no matter how busy you are, do start writing a history of your lives to leave with your children. We started when we were too old. You are capable of writing as you may never be if you leave it later, and Dorothy, I do wish I were going to be alive to read the story you and John can write, and probably will do in the not too distant future. Go get at it soon. Maybe some of which is contained in these letters may help you remember important events. If so, keeping them throughout the years will not have seemed in vain.
Love from Mother
