Dear Tom,

I was so happy to get your telegram. We had been so worried and it was difficult to believe that no news was good news. Anne and I look forward to seeing you very much. She says it is funny to think she has a brother-in-law she’s never met! The boys also want to meet their ‘nuncle’.

I’m sorry to say that in with the joy of hearing you are alive is some sadness also. Grandma, whose health had not been well for some years, had a stroke in summer of last year and passed away after a short illness. She had been in good spirits all through the war, even when it was difficult, and had a good innings as she used to say herself. I hope you will let this be a comfort to you in with the sad news.
