Sept 20 [1984]
Dear Roberta & Sid,
I really enjoyed spending Aug. 19 with the Uibles. Its always good to see you. Thanks for your card from Hocking Hills. The last time I was there was the summer of 1951.
Garnet Fisher & I go to visit the Fishers at Logan, Ohio quite often. I spent last week end with Garnet down near Rocky Fork Lake. I went to Sunday school & church first. Got to meet the new preacher. I came home Monday evening.
I enjoyed the Bus tour to the Ozarks Sept 5 thru 8. Saw the Play Shepherd of the Hills, also toured St. Louis. Mariann came & took me to lunch for my birthday. [Elizabeth was born Sept. 14, 1914, thus we know the year this letter was written.] June is taking us all out to dinner Sat. night. Friday 21st is Mariann's birthday. She will be 32 this time. I was 70. I am slowing down a little.
Worked upstairs the past 3 days. Got it all ready to close off for winter.
Luther Warren's marriage license was in yesterday's paper. He is 93 and she 78 years. I am invited to the wedding on Sept. 30. It's at the Friends meeting house on the campus and we are invited to a sit down dinner afterwards at Prairie View.
Well must move along. I have checks to bank and apples to make into dumplings for the freezer.
I am sorry we didn't get to the farm. The Spurlocks are doing a really good job of taking care of the yard. Everything looks neat & well cared for. It would have been a good time for Sid to have seen it.
Love to you both,
Elizabeth
