By the Grace of G-d 11th of Nissan, 5726 Brooklyn, New York

Greeting and Blessing:

On the occasion of the forth-coming Yom-Tov Pesach, I send you my prayerful wishes that the Festival of Our Freedom bring you and yours true freedom, freedom from anxiety material and spiritual, from anything which might distract from serving G-d whole-heartedly and with joy, and to carry over this freedom and joy into the whole year.

Wishing you and yours a kosher

and happy Pesach,

Cordially

M. Schneerson

P.S. It was a pleasant surprise for me to see you in Shul on Shabbos after the davenen. Although the time was not opportune for a conversation and inquiry after the well-being of your family, the very fact of seeing a good friend, especially in a place of Torah and Tefilla, and having davened together, is in itself a matter of personal gratification.

I trust you shared the same feeling, and as it has been said ”As water reflects a face, so does one heart reflect another."¹
