Dear Emily
I was delighted to get your letter and shall always be glad to hear or see you. Yes, we do plan to have the pool cleaned up by the time it is warm enough probably in May.
Grandma and I are doing quite well and think of you frequently. We don't think that we are going to die soon but like everyone who has ever lived or is now living we shall die someday when God decides it is time to join him, Christ and the rising from the dead has promised us another life after our life on earth.
Keep doing a great job at school. We shall be happy to see you whenever you can come see us. I hope that will be soon.
My love to a loving and loved grand-daughter.
Grandpa
