Dear Miriam Many times I wanted to write but I did not want to disturb you knowing how sick you have been. It has been only recently that I found out you have been feeling much better.
I am planning to visit Framingham again real soon and I am hoping that you may be well enough that I may visit for a short time.
Much has happened in my life from the time I have been home, which I will fill you in on when I see you next. One thing I would like to tell you about now is that I visited Lyam School for Boys last month and I fell I may be able to help some of the boys from returning to there. At any rate I have been giving the opertunity of trying to do so. At this date I am puting together a rock and roll band that I am sure the kids will like. When I become more fortunate with the personal I will ask that I be allowed to act more as a big brother to some of the boys whom do not have a Father and who ended up at Lyman because of this.
My Parole Off. has given me the green light to get my license and I am going to write in requesting it. I do hope I am allowed to get it as I really do need it.
Hoping everything has been much better for you and hoping to see you soon.
God Bless You Always
Love Dick
