[TI] names

[Bill & Rose Kapranos]

Dear Ken,

I had been wondering what you were up to.  Thanks to your short letter, now
I know.

I had been wondering what you were doing.  Sounds as if you're still driving
a big truck, getting there safely.  I hope you have some good thoughts of
all of us, in the background.  Your thoughts and expressions are all great.
Please keep them coming.  I wish I could write that you  were my cousin,
even if 4 times on the generic calendar,as is Terry's wife.

Rose Capodice Kapranos

"Di" and "D'" prefixes represent the word "of" or "from".
