On August 19, 1971, my dad wrote his last letter to my mom in Miami before redirecting his words to San Antonio, carefully timing the mail so she wouldn’t miss a day of his love. My mom, writing the same day, urged him to always be honest about his homesickness because she could feel it through his words no matter what. They promised each other forever and ever, and in these letters, you can feel how much they were truly soulmates.
