Exchanging Portraits (Part 38)


Russian Soviet Socialist Republic, September 25, 1965. Elena, a younger sister of my paternal Grandmother Tatjana, wrote, "To my sister, my dear Tanjusha as a keepsake. I'm always reminiscing about you. I love you."

Thanks to my dear friend D for translating the text from Russian to English.

A real testament to the bonds of family that they stayed in touch.

It's interesting to see that much of the correspondence was not vey substantive, and we know why.

I would imagine there was a good bit between the lines.
