Long after HPL was gone, Sonia and Loveman communicated. However, by 1953, we can see by this letter that they were not in close touch. It's hard for us to recall, or relaize, but in our days of IM and cell phones, most people still communicated by letters - snail mail. Yes, there were telephones, but state to state was long distance, and quite expensive. A dollar or two for a long distance call was quite expensive for folks who might only make $50 a week or so.
