Dear Edna: Deep thanks for a strong inspiration of my own Irishness, having been raised by my Irish Mother, a widow at 37, when I me self was 3, leaving a widow and an orphan to be guided by Pater noster in cealis. I have read many times in the bible that God indeed watches over the widow and the orphan, and indeed that is very very true in my case as unworthy as I am. Your inspiring reading I believe is a portion of that Divine guidance which I realize each day. A thousand blessings on you and may the road always rise to meet you. With deep admiration and affection I remain in love with you and your deep deep relation with the Word. Thank you Love LarK xxooxx
