Martin Bible.

In 1966, Ray and Lucy Martin gave Steve and Sue Martin a bible for Christmas.  And here is the letter that went with it.

May a Mother and Father's blessing go with this Bible

wherever it may find a home;

be it a shanty or a palace.

  May the walls of this home enfold happiness,

 love, and little childres' laughter.

  May it record many happy events,

 large and small

and only the ending of fully lived lives.

  All our love and blessings,

 Mom and Dad  Dec. 25, 1966.
