<p>Getting ready to blog about the incoming mail from you, dear Sam, when I came across this discussion. I totally agree with your sentiments about waiting to share outgoing mail. I like to be surprised too.</p>
<p></p>
<p>You have left this planet over two months ago. I am so glad that I had gotten to know you, even for a short time. It seems that mail art brought you much pleasure despite the fact that you were bedridden.</p>

<p>Sam, your bright spirit and sense of humor made (and still makes) me smile. Even in the thread of this discussion your humor was evident. I especially like your comment from July 2, 2019. You said <em>"i think its just a mindfulness thing, perhaps ppl get so busy & don't have the awareness 2 stop @ think that t<span style="text-decoration: underline;">hey might b taking the air right out of the mail art surprise tire."</span></em> I love that!</p>
<p></p>
<p>Anyway...thanks for the mail, and see you on the other side. God Bless You!</p>
