June 13, 1985 Dear Mary: Bless your wonderful self and your gracious kindness for sending me a check for $1,000 for my reelection campaign and for the two $1,000 checks as well from your lovely sister and your fine nephew. These contributions will help me to continue to enjoy the immeasurable privilege of working with you and your sister and your nephew to provide better health and happier lives for the people of our country and of the world. You are one of the world's loveliest and greatest ladies and my most cherished friend. Fond wishes, and Always sincerely, Claude Pepper
