I hung the dear wreath by candlelight on Christmas. It brought to me years and years of happy memories. You were so thoughtful to fill the empty place on my mantel where May3's wreath has hung each succeeding winter for many years. Yes, it was a lovely thought you had, and it makes me know that the old tie is not broken. When you and I think of her we are together.
