The Editor,

Re: “She left her beloved England for true love,” the Now, Nov. 5.

I just read Beau Simpson’s story about his grandmother Iris M. Simpson. Thank you for sharing her story in the Now.

It’s such a sweet and inspiring story. I admired her physical and inner beauty. I also loved so much the words she used to describe her love to your late grandfather, “the light of my life.”

It has touched my heart deeply.

Whenever you call her, please let her know that her story has been such a blessing for me.
