DEAR BURTON, I AM SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR BROTHER, YOUR OLD GRAMMER SCHOOL FRIEND.THE LAST TIME I SAW YOU WAS WHEN YOU VISTED ME AND MY WIFE IN CICERO ABOUT 1951 WHEN I CALLED YOU UP AT THE AMERICAN LAUNDRY. AT THAT TIME YOU CAME OVER WITH YOUR GIRLFRIEND. YOU KNOW EUGENE WAS KILLED DURING THE KOREAN WAR IN A PLANE CRASH RETURNING FROM JAPAN. ALL THE GUYS FROM TRUMBALL AVE ATTENDED THE FUNERAL. GOOD LUCK HOWARD PRIMACK
