Dear Alex,

Probably I shouldn't, but I'm interrupting the compilation of the
600 plus pages to be submitted in 12 copies in the Appeal of Meyer v. 
Nantucket Building Dept et al. SUCV 2015-00337, because my 85 years 
old brain won't retain its contents for more than a few minutes. 
That brain suddenly remembers that when my grandson Benjamin placed the 
Meyer Family Rabbit Eric on Margaret's death bed as his proxy to be with 
her (c.f. Bist Du bei mir geh ich mit Freuden zum Sterben und zu meiner
Ruh..., who would have thought of a rabbit surrogate?) and to comfort her,our brother Peter recognized this, if I remember correctly, as "an act 
of genius". I won't risk being accused of condescension by similary 
labling your proposal to establish Sharon as our family Avignon by 
organizing there a Memorial "Service" for Margaret on January 17, 
as an act of genius, but I do consider it eminently appropriate, 
and, if invited, I shall be there, subject to my unpredictable and 
uncontrollable mood swings.

When I'm overwhelmed by the monotony of the scanner's interminable
introjection of page after page into to computer's innards, I click
on the directories "home/meyer/Letters/1949" and start reading the
correspondence between Margaret and myself complete with our discussions
of Lakeview Avenue as the problematic boundary of her world and mine,
an intersection the negotiation of which has been the work of a 
lifetime. If the Memorial "Service" is held at Cedar Street in Sharon,
then Cedar Street will take is place as the closing bracket of a
relationship the opening bracket of which was on Lakeview Avenue.

With great respect and much love, Jochen
