1983 - (Note from Rog, he was in Palm Springs sheet-rocking with Layne, and LuAnn, Gwen, Linda, and Joni had gone down to visit him and had headed home)  I love you and the kids.  You have only been gone 3 hours and I miss you.  Give Mandy and Zac a big kiss and a hug.  It won't be too bad.  I will be home soon.  Take good care of everything.  I know you will.  We are just going to bed now.  Wish I was with you.  I am not much of a writer, so I hope you can read it.  I bet the kids will forget me.  Spend a lot of time at your mom's.  It will make the time go by faster.  I hope your ride home was not too bad. Well, better go to sleep now.  Write me soon, and call.  Tell everyone hello.  I love you all.  Love you hubby

June 1983 (Father's Day)
Dear Rog, I miss you so bad, and wish you were home.  But we're doing fine and the kids still ask about you.  We are all sitting down right now, and the kids are drawing for you on their card.  Amanda says "My daddy will be so happy"  We hope you are fine and the heat isn't bothering you too much.  If you decide that maybe we should move out, that will be okay.  What ever happens, it will all work out.  I miss you at night especially.  I'm always wondering what you're doing. The years may come, the years may go, and times may change it's true.  But time will never, change the love, within my heart for you!  We miss and love you a whole bunch.  Hurry home, but be careful.  Love Gwen and kids.

Dear Roger, You sure have a cute family.  I'm sorry I didn't get to see you while I was in Utah, but I got thoroughly acquainted with your little family.  You can sure be proud of them.  Have you decided yet whether the whole family is going to move to Palm Springs, Calif.?  If so, when?  They can move, just as long as they are back in Utah next year when I make my annual visit. (ha-ha)  The weather here is very humid right now, but we have been going to the beach to make up for it.  Well, I had better close for now.  The pictures I took in Utah really came out good.  I sent a set to Grandma Tonks.  You'll have to go up and see them.  Take care and write when you get a chance.  Dawna
