FULLER MEMORIAL SANITARIUM
SOUTH ATTLEBORO, MASS.
Specializing in nervous, convalescent, and rest cases. An ideal home for the elderly. Located in the seclusion of a beautiful country estate.
Dear Lucy,
This is Memorial Day and I can hear the parade in the distance. I’m out under the tree in back of the nurses’ home. These cards don’t flatter the place any, because it certainly is a beautiful spot. Haven’t sent this yet. Don’t write till you hear from me again.
With love,
Mom
