RACHEL MARTIN, HOST: Good morning. I'm Rachel Martin with a story with no irony, no punchline, just love. During a home renovation, a New Jersey woman found a letter under her staircase. It was postmarked 1945, written by a woman named Virginia Christoffersen to her husband, a sailor in the Norwegian Navy. Quote, "I love you, Rolf, as I love the warm sun." That New Jersey woman tracked down the Christoffersen's son. He read the letter to his 96-year-old dad. Virginia died six years ago this weekend.
The homeowner tracked down the family, and Rolf Christoffersen's son read the letter from his late mother Virginia to his 96-year-old dad. Virginia died six years ago this weekend.
