Tina has allowed us to share this letter she received from her Uncle.....I know you will all enjoy reading this.....
Tina,
Great Follow through with the cards. I was over at dad's tonight and the total is well over 40 cards so far. Germany. Ireland, Austria, Australia, Switzerland, England, Canada, Belgium,Scotland and Texas are some of the foreign countries heard from so far. Also Oregon, Washington, Virginia,Wisconsin, Kansas, Arizona, and California are represented. (I may have forgotten some I was doing that from memory...)
He's having a ball. The cards from your group are all really neat. All very unique, and well done.
And Many nice comments about you. Congratulations on a job well done!
Dad plans on writing a generic thank you with a little bit of history and a photograph of him and "HIS CARDS".
I'll take several pictures and make sure I get some good ones which I will forward to you. It probably will be a week or so to make sure we have all the cards in the picture.
This was a GREAT idea!
Love to you and all my grand nephews and grand nieces.
U Frank

I am so glad he is having fun receiving these cards. I guess to some, Texas is a foreign country, lol! Sorry, I couldn't pass that one up!
Thanks for letting us know, Ila. I am so glad that he is enjoying all the cards. :0)
I think this was such an awesome idea and I am sorry I missed it. I planned on sending one to him, but the stamp that I ordered for his card, did not get here yet. How long will he be receiving cards?? I hope you have been well, Ila!!
Love,
