"You would be surprised just how much one letter means to a fellow," wrote Bonnie Neal Puckett in 1944. "It cheers him up to hear from home, and it makes him feel more like doing his job." Soon after Neal's death in 2015, his family discovered a treasure trove of handwritten letters he penned during World War II. Neal had written to his parents nearly every day, always beginning with "Dear Folks." This collection of letters offers a glimpse into a bygone era when one would write, wait, and daydream of loved ones. Ownership of a new pen was something special, and a phone call was a moment to be cherished. In many ways, the narrative that emerges from Neal's letters may help each of us to better appreciate our modern comforts and find value in the ability to simply slow down.
