Hi Nicholas
the txt is a bit long, but, just a brief summary of memory card with letter, I can say you that Gary(Gregorio) died in Soveria Mannelli on 12 Feb. 1905, and the author of letter, describes the pain that has been a courageous man towards the disease, and that we must now to have courage, that death is a destiny that touches everyone. She tells how the funeral was, the people who attended it, described the coffin, and said she put the black satin drawer on the store door. Everyone in the family mourned the deceased, dressed in black, and hopes that they will do the same for others (in USA). He asks to collect all the things he has with Gary, and put them in a chest for remembrance. He will do the same with Gary's things in Italy.
regards,
suanj
