Reply to an earlier letter from BH, with apologies for the delay
caused by the "busy and exciting" weeks and months following the
orbital flight, decisions concerning their new home, and "keeping my
family 'going.'" She expresses pride in the record album, emotion
when Scott Carpenter says "God speed John Glenn," and compliments BH on his "beautiful" music, adding they "enjoy playing it over and
over." The stationery's NASA letterhead identifies John H. Glenn, Jr.
as a Mercury Astronaut and includes a drawing of the Friendship 7
capsule. Accompanied by the envelope. Scanned from original text or image using a Canon Expression 10000XL scanner. Optimized in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and saved in .pdf format.
