(1993 August)
It may be well for you to remember in this place I go downstairs to chapel Sundays at 4 p.m. to 4:30 [so don't phone me then]. To avoid standing, which is hard for me, I usually say yes to a wheelchair, and the chairs go on the elevator very well. It is a little like church - a hymn and a prayer and a sermon, and back up in the elevator, which I am not overly fond of.
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
