5 thats his wife, was with him in Maryland for a little while had to come back home with her folks in Toledo and has gone back to work at her old job. Dad is going to the hospital sometime in June to have his hernia fixed. I would like to get home to see him and be with him then. But the C.O. says only if he's dead or dying. They are pretty blunt in the army, sometimes. Aunt Maude is working in a hardware store and I understand she enjoys it though its hard work at her age. I think I told you Helen, Jim & Gloria are moved in with her. Jimmie was in the hospital but has gone back to work now. Close now. Love from B.J.
