Dear Mick,
I was speaking to Kay recently and she told me that Pat's month's mind Mass was fixed for Saturday 17th April at 7:30 PM DV. We would be only too glad to have you with us there and back on which day you'd find more suitable. Say to travel on Friday evening and return on Sunday or maybe Saturday would suit you best. However just lets know where and when we could collect you on that particular weekend. It will be no difficulty for us - whatever you decide.

Yours sincerely,
Jim + Patricia (Evans)

My Dear Mick

Just a line to let you know we heard from Kay - She said Owen Farrell's son called and told her you were in the hospital the same time as his father - You had a nosebleed some times that relieves the blood pressure - How do you feel now - try and write a few lines and let us know.

We will probly be over there the first of April or the last day in March.

Did I tell you Mary fell on the ice and fractured her left wrist - but she is coming along ... now.

thank God .. about getting dose that your woman in Wm Johns place take care of you --we are glad you have someone like that around

We are having a lot of snow but it could be worse. How is Brigid Hanratty and Teddy also the Bradleys and the Golloglys and Mary Kate McNulty? Give them our regards and Mickey take care of yourself

Mary & Bea
