Beloved Helen Keller: Of course you feel the enveloping love and gratitude to your other half for what she did for you and that means for the whole world. She did more than unlock the doors for you, that was a service for all of us. My deep affection and the hope that someday you will find your way to the House On The Pond and know in what affection and love we hold you. Lillian D. Wald
