Theos-Talk Archives (May 1999ar Message tt00078)

Dear Arnaldo:

Thanks for your encouraging msg. My home has always been open to everyone and
anyone and this has been going on for a number of years. Even during my father's
time, this has been so. We always enjoy visitors. Many theosophical leaders and
ordinary people have been my guests over the years. So this is an open standing
invitation to everybody.
