Wish You Were Here

Back in 1957, George was practicing his writing skills and sent a couple of cards to Gramps and Nanny, Nellie and Najeeb Abdallah of Binghamton. I'll post the backs of the cards first for a change of pace.



Here are the fronts of the cards in the same order.

    He's also practicing what to write on a postcard.

    George was a true poet- half a century later his simple words made me think of the loved ones I have lost, and wished they were here to share my nice time...

    I am sure Gramp's and Nanny were as pleased as punch getting these postcards!

    I agree with Ruth. The fact that these cards are still around suggests that they had been kept for years.
