Dearest Mom, Lillian and Mary -
Plan to write you every day and how the days fly. We went to Pilger over Memorial week-end and it was good to see the folks - stopped in Lincoln and saw Marian's and Stuart's sister Marg from Texas was there, so we had a nice visit. The folks are well and I wish you could see Dad's roses - they look like they are exaggerating - enormous & every color white - cream - yellow scarlet - deep red & all the in between shades..
