“Dear Miss Mitchell: I was so pleased with your letter and my various Christmas gifts. It is so good to be remembered each year and so generously. I use all your presents with great joy. There isn’t any news to you regarding Lincoln Center but I am at work on a Broadway show which I hope to finish within the year. My only other news is the fact that I had a bad heart attack in July but am now completely well and happy. This is also true of the family. The grandchildren are all large, healthy and great fun. I hope this finds you well and enjoying yourself. Thanks again for your great kindness. Yours sincerely, Richard Rodgers.”
