**********************


Dear Beverly,

Are you crazy?? Do you really have to *think* about what to say? I 
think I will have to 'diagnose' this as *nuts*. I hope you were only 
joking in your letter, because if not, Will & I are going to hunt you 
down and strangle you.

In case you need more clarification, Will and I agree that you better 
tell Jean Luc "Yes" and it better be soon! Real soon! 

I am truly elated that you finally decided to *listen * to me and 
told that man how you really feel about him! It's about time you both 
did something about your mutual feelings. You have waited so long to 
find the happiness you both deserve and I am delighted that you two 
have finally done something about it! You took the first step Beverly, 
and for that alone, I am very proud of you!

I'm glad I could help *push* you in the right direction. If it wasn't 
for your constant 'pushing', Will and I wouldn't be getting married in 
two weeks. You never let me forget that Will & I belong together and 
for that, I am grateful. I *told* you that you needed to listen to 
your own advice and follow your heart. Did I not?

Oh, and I *will*expect all the details when I see you at the wedding. 
And I mean *all* the *details*!

I have to go now, Will is waiting for me in the hot tub. Now, you two 
enjoy yourself! I mean it! I'll see you in two weeks!

Love,

Deanna
