Scope and Contents

Handwritten thank you card, written in blue ink, reads as follows:

Dear Golden Agers, This was really a surprise. Took mail out of box. Envelope had Golden Agers on it. I said bless their hearts. They sent me a card. When I opened it and saw the check...Well that was just too much. I've always been so grateful when anyone does nice things for me. Also very eadily touched. So you can just guess the rest. And Dorothy that card was beautiful. I hope you [illegible] every word of it. Won't know what is what until I see my [doctor] again, May 29. By that time I guess Club will be closed. Sorry I fell, why did this all have to be. Thanks a lot for both the card and check. And may "God," bless all of you till we meet again. Love, Ella.
