My Dearest James, I think of you day and night, you are my holy light. If only you can come to my sight so I can hold you so tight. Why did you have to go? From my eyes, tears of sadness flow. I miss your laugh and smile, without you I feel lonely, once in awhile. I would travel mile by mile just to see you once more to fix my heart that you tore. You can't imagine how much we miss you, if only I had the last chance to tell you. I love you very much James and someday we shall meet again.

Love Aunt Ruthie
