April 18, 1990
Dear Family
My name is Rachel [redacted] and I am 14 years old. I would just like to say that I am sorry about your son's death even though I never knew him, he and his story touched my heart.
I cared about Ryan and would like to give you this poem I have written (enclosed) as a dedication to Ryan and his courage.
As I said before, I really cared about this boy and admired his courage. I am truely sorry I never had the [heart?] to meet him personally .
Maybe at someday meeting down the road, I'll have my chance. Until then, I give you my deepenst sympathies, prayers, and love.
Sincerely,
Rachel
