User-Contributed Transcription to do, Bertha keeps her happy self
even though she does not go out much
due to the arthritis in her knees & toes.
She does not paint either as her eyes are
not so good (cataracts) But Dr. does not
think she will have to have surgery.
Alga has had a bad cold, she sure
has slowed down and I dont think
she feels to well we dont discuss that
though as she never complains and
always says everyone has something
when they get older guess she's right
I was happy to hear your Sister Anita
received her Ph.d. You girls all so
brilliant, and she tells me you are
busy with your writing. It would be
nice if you came to see us as you
said you might do. You are always
welcome. I'll think of you and a wish
for a Happy Healthy New Year.
With Fondest Love
Lydia
Alga sends her love & Bertha also
