Subject: Regarding Ray Lafferty

Dear OSFW:

We just received the following letter concerning Ray.
Please pass this information to anyone attempting to correspond
with him.

Best and Happy New Year, Warren

Elizabeth A. Kennington 1415 Pennsylvania Avenue Durham, North Carolina 27705 Home Phone (919)-286-9519 December 28, 1997 To friends of Raphael A. Lafferty: I am a cousin of Ray's who is helping him keep track of his bills and correspondence. The mail to 1715 S. Trenton, Tulsa, OK is being forwarded to my address, so I received your card or letter and sent it to him. But I noted your return address so I could let you know Ray's current residence: Franciscan Villa Health Care Center J-54 17110 E. 51st Street South Broken Arrow, OK 74012 He moved there after some health problems that needed more care than he could get at home. He is doing well, and I'm sure would appreciate hearing from you. Please understand if he is not able to reply to your messages. I would be happy to help if you need to contact him. Thanks for your mail. Sincerely Betsy Kennington
