Though this letter is only 31 years old, it contains many names. This was sent to my grandma and grandpa Finkbeiner in Sharon PA by Dorothy PATTERSON of Englewood FL. (My grandmother died about 2 weeks before unbeknownst to the writer.) Wed., Dec 11, 1968 Dear Folk, Its that time of year again. The nicest part of our Christmas is hearing from our friends. Hope you area as well as when we saw you in W. Middlesex. Just wish we could have had a longer visit. We were in Sharon for Paul BEHARY's funeral. It was a fast trip and we didn't get around much. That was a terrible shock. We had be neighbors for thirty years. He was a good man. Pat is fine and still working. I'm living a different life for me. I'm getting lazy. Don't hear much about how the PITTS family is getting along. Florence and Al HURST are going to be here for Jan, Feb, March. They have a nice apartment. He is retired from Sharon Gas Company. We aren't having company this year for Christmas. Last year my half sister Betty and Carl were here from Chardon, O. We are going to spend the day with Dr. Harry and Ruth MILLIKIN. He hasn't been very well. They live in Sarasota, thirty miles north of here. Emmy KEENE and I are going to a style show and luncheon today so I must get ready. Will be anxious to hear how this years has been for you. Love, Dorothy
