I would request the blogger to post a brief history of Priscilla and her family. Thanks for sharing.

Priscilla and the family had heard of Joe’s death by early November, 1918. This returned letter would have been a poignant reminder in the mailbox 6 months later. REL

I can’t believe she learned of Joe’s death from one cold word printed on the returned envelope.. “deceased”.
