Dear You,

I mailed my letters, three of them. Gabby and Hazel helped me with the wording. Then I copied our rough draft onto my golden retriever stationery three times. I spent a lot of time and effort on them. I tried to make my handwriting neat and legible, and I think I succeeded. I checked all the spelling.

All three letters were the same except for the salutations:

DEAR__________ (INSERT EITHER DOPPEL AND SMITH REAL ESTATE FIRM, THE DOPPEL COUNTRY COUSINS TRIO, or FRESH FROM THE VINE),

I AM PENELOPE VICTORIA BACH. I AM IN FIFTH GRADE.

I REQUIRE INFORMATION ABOUT MY DISTANT RELATIVES.

MY MOTHER IS REBECCA BACH, FORMERLY DOPPEL AND THEN WOLNEY, FROM JUNOVILLE. MY FATHER WAS WILLIAM WOLNEY, DECEASED IN A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT IN OAKLAND, FORMERLY OF JUNOVILLE, TOO. BOTH OF THEM WERE ORPHANS.

THEY MOVED TO OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA, IN 2002.

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP!

BY THE WAY, I AM AN AVID BASKETBALL FAN. I HAVE NOTICED THAT WYOMING DOESN’T HAVE A PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL TEAM. MY CONDOLENCES ABOUT THAT.

EMPATHICALLY YOURS,

PVB

Hazel and Gabby agreed it would be a shock for Mama to get the news herself in the mail, out of the blue, so Hazel said we should give her address as a return address instead of mine. Hazel always gets the mail before her mom or Rick come home. Then Hazel will give me the mail from any long-lost relatives, and I can break the good news to Mama with sensitivity.

Love,

Pen
