Dear Mommy,
I am now 11. Uncle Matt joined you in heaven this morning. After he got sick the doctors gave him medicine to get him to be healthy again. They worked for four more years but suddenly they stopped working.
Papa still wont tell me what heaven is. Is it a place where you work. If it is I would go there any day to see you. I may hate working and doing chores but I would do it to see you.
Do you remember George. I told you about him a few letters back. He is still my best friend. He heard rumors from his parents that they are losing money. He said he might be moving back to Colorado where he came from.
I don't want him to leave mommy. I have other friends but I want George. He knows me better than anyone else. He is there for me when I get upset at school when kids bring up their mothers.
Why did you have to go to heaven mommy? Why couldn't you have stayed here with me and papa? Papa would stop crying at night and he would be happy again. We miss you mommy. Please come home mommy. I need you.
