What is the aim or goal of your writing: I found 21 letters in a secret panel of an old desk written in the summer of 1930 from a young woman in Ohio to an older gentleman in Bay City, MI. I was fascinated by the contents and by the person who wrote them. That was in 1979, and for years I wondered about the fate of those two people. I began my search for Mary Ann and Charles in the year 2000. I attribute my success to curiosity, tenacity, determination and passion.
