Beautiful story. One year to the day after their wedding Neil is shipped out to war. W.W.1 was in full swing and Neil was going to be sent over seas to fight soon. Caroline was expecting their baby. He promised to be back in a year--Valentines Day and he would bring back the Valentine and rose he left with, for her. He promised her he would return. He promised and promised each letter. For fifty years she sat at the train station every Valentines day waiting for him to keep his promise and to revieve The Last Valentine. I loved this story--get out the kleenex and get ready to read a book that will not leave you for awhile. I'm going to bed tonight with a little more appreciation for promises made and roses.
