Written on back: From Grandma and Bernice Dear Friend Lotta and all: Rec'd your letter and were very glad to hear from you. I feel a little better this morning but Mr. Packer isn't any better. We think that Mr. Packer needs someone to take care of him so guess we will go home and take care of him there.
