God Bless You At Easter

[Image of an open book in flowers]

My Easter would not have been completed without sending you all a reminder to let you know that I'm still thinking of you and admiring your courage and the poeryies [sic] that you are making so that we may have a better tomorrow. God bless you all. I'm hoping my card will help keep the smiles on your faces and hearts.

To all of you

May He who makes the flowers grow

And sends the sunshine, too.

Bless Easter Day and every day

With happiness for you.

Sincerely thinking of you all,

Myrtle & the family.
