Mr. Matthews, I'm not wealthy, and driving three hours is difficult for me. I can write though. And for you, in this case, it's not all past tense. I met your son-in-law in the Summer of 1999. Of all the people I met in that claims office, I knew he was one of the good people...and considering I met five good ones out of sixty-two, that's saying something. The only piece of John's life that equals his empathy, is his Love for your daughter. Sara is the kind of wife I hope to meet someday. I am very, very happy for Sara, and John. Personally, I've had an interesting Life...and Thank God! But it would not be as fulfilling right now if I had not met John. I have to be convinced of conincidence. That's not paranoia, just experience. Meeting John, and your daughter, was Divine. Literally. Their patience and help this past year have been invaluable. Sara, and John, saved my life. And helped heal my Soul. Of course, without me John would be less experienced in the history of parapsychology, but that doesn't matter right now. I'm told you are a religous man, and I believe it. You did right by your daughter and your wife, and I'm sure you did so for your sons. Enjoy the next step, and I sincerely Hope I meet you there upon my arrival.
