| Our pride and joy, Edwin Robert Sayre Smith-Standish |
"Bob" as he is know to his siblings, and is pictured above, focuses his practice on Corporate Law and Probate matters. He is a partner in the Boston firm of Kennedy, Sayre, Cavendish, Smith-Standish and Wu. This is the same practice that my great grandfather, Fletcher Sayre co-founded in 1890 with Mr. Oswald Cavendish. Mr. Kennedy elbowed his way in in 1930 (and luckily then sped off to California to fornicate with Gloria Swanson), and I'm not sure where Ms. Wu came from, but I am sure that if she is a partner in this firm that she is a lovely woman, if not a bit ruthless.
Robert, as Edwin and I affectionately call him, was a happy baby and sound A student in the Shaker Heights public school system where he attended Malvern School, Byron Junior High and Shaker Heights High School. Accepted to Harvard, he stayed away from such distraction and nonsense that envelopes so many young people.

| Our Dear Daughter in Law, Margery just before the "unspeakable" incident that we don't discuss in public. |
Upon earning his law degree at Georgetown, he married his college sweetheart, Margery Morehouse of Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan. Margery is devoted to our son and we are so glad to have her in our family. Yes, it's true. We really value her, and her home is immaculate.
Robert and Margery have four bright and alert child: Edwin Robert Sayre Smith-Standish IV (Eddie to his friends) who is the Peace Corps, eying a career in Public Service; Hillary (she was born long before we ever had the slightest inclination that Hillary Rodham Clinton would ever amount to anything), who is a junior interpreter at the United Nations; Morehouse who is enrolled at Yale, and Bronwyn, a physical Education student at Vassar.

| Robert IV and his mother; Margery is not happy about this Sylvia business |
So far, only one engagement to note for the grandchildren; Robert IV has met a lovely young woman from Mexico named Sylvia. Although we do not know anything about her family, we understand that her father is in the export business in Juarez. Our last private detective that we sent south to compile a dossier on her family came back in six boxes, so we hope that Robert IV will come to his senses and opens up his options.
Well, if you will excuse me, but the car is her to take me to Heinen's for groceries and then to doctor to have my annual vaginal exam.
Wishing you a safe and productive day ahead, I remain,
Mrs. Edwin Smith-Standish
