Dear Dr. Van Waters
Long time since
I heard from you
I hope you are well -
Miss Weinberg says your
mother is not well. I am
sorry. We cannot live for
ever. I know to loose a
Mother is hard, I experienced
it, and I was no baby.
The worse thing ever happened
to me. If get lonseome more
so ever day, I have not been
so good my self. Will come
to Framingham shortly
All being well
Remember me [To?] your Mother
My love to both

Respectfully
Bessie
