User-Contributed Transcription September 1, 1972
Dear Slim,
Just a note to tell you that you are in my thoughts, especially now. It is hard to lose a son even if you weren't close to him.
Also want to thank you for all your morale support and compassion. You are a very dear person. You know, Slim, you always have confidence in me, something I very much lack, and wanted you to know how much you have helped me. Can't repay all those who have been so
