Found with this letter, in the spot where the photos were taped. Some photographs became detached over the years, so this isn’t confirmed. If you recognize the face or notice a mismatch, please let me know.

Spelling is kept exactly as written. [possibly: …] means a reading we aren’t sure of. Tap a photo to enlarge it.

733 Wash. St. Gloucester Ma Jan 7, 1967 Dear Russell, Hi! You are a brave man to fight over in the war. I hope you get out of the hospital soon. If you are in the hospital long I hope it goes fast. Here is a joke. How come bees hum? Because they do not know the words. Did you like school when you were young. I do a little. At home we watch the news. By for now. Sincerly yours, Brian Burn[s?]

Can you help?

Were you in this class, or do you know this family? I’d love to hear from you.
