Translation

  Ft. Lupton, Colorado Dear daughter,

this letter is to greet you, your husband and the kids.

I hope that all are well, and that the baby has not gotten sick. I think she must be getting big.

I have been somewhat well. I’ve kept going to the doctor every two weeks. He’s giving me shots and pills.

Max is starting to plant the onions. The weather is like today, with rain or snow coming. The radio says we’ll get snow. We’re in May and still snow.

Well, I will also tell you that Mrs. Bassor came for a visit. She stayed here with Helen. She’s old now, but she primps so much that she looks very good.

Well, I’m writing so you’ll   reply, because I wrote to you and you haven’t answered.

I hope that you are well. Write to me, that’s all I want. Please daughter, don’t put off writing to me. Don’t be lazy in writing to me, since I cannot travel to see you.

I will tell you that Jesse bought another car. This one is red and cream, two-colored. It’s a Ford 1959. He traded in the other. He said that they had taken his old car for $1,500, and this one cost $3,000.

Well, these are all the news. Around here. Many regards Warm regards Much love to Bill, Billy boy, and for Robert, and Linda Pamela, and the baby, from all of us: Max and your mother.

Kathy was very happy when we told her that you had a baby girl. It’s good that you have a baby girl. I like baby girls.

  Well, this will be all for now, you mother Jesusita B. Torres;
