I Just Can't Get over You: Volume Ii

By Salvatore Cimorelli

The following collection of Love Letters in this book are from Rita, who lived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; after she came from Naples, Italy. . I had met Rita in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in the early-50's, when I was also living there.

After we had gone out for a couple of years, in January, 1955, I was enlisted in the Army and sent to Camp Gordon, Georgia; and I was not able to spend close time with Rita.

As I try to recall, it was about 1955 that Rita started writing the Love Letters to me; and they continued as I was moved to Fort Monmouth, N.J. and then to Camp Devon, MA.

And so, the following paragraphs in this book make up the summary of the collection of Rita's Love Letters which cry out to me.

Rita also would often tell me, 'I just can't stop thinking of you.' Now again, it saddens me to think and realize that I did not respond positively to Rita's motivating suggestions of us getting married. And so, after I had helped her to get a High School Diploma, she traveled back to Italy with a U. S. Government's job.

I called your family to let them know about it. They are all very happy to hear that you are O.K.

The all side is black and blue, she has been to the doctors and he is going to exray it.

She isen’t feeling to well but please don’t get yourself all upset about it.

She is going to be alwright. I also talked to Joe and he said that he’s sending you all the letters that Mr. B. send to him to mail it to you. You are to present them to your comander, and your to request a State side assignment from were ever you are.

At the same time Joe is sending you the address of M.B. and you are to write a letter to him stating that you have applied for State Sick. This is what Mr B. requested you to do before taking farder action, and also send him your address.

You know Sal, Joe is realy running around for you trying to get all this business straighten out.

I’m sure that Mr. B. and the others will do what ever they can to help you.

So please fallow instruction on what ever we tell you to do as soon as possible. Don’t let the writing go like you do with me.

It’s very important that surten matter be taken immediate action.

I hope you understand what I wrote. Sal I hope you will write to me a lot because if you don’t I’ll go crazy and I mean that.

Every hour is like a day every day like a month and the months are going to seem like years. I feel like the time is never going by for me it drags.

Please write and let me know more details. You said very little in today letter. I expected you to tell me all about the trip and everything else. Let me know were you are going to be stationed as soon as possible.

Do you know that you didn’t even tell me that you miss me. Its already 9 days that you are way from me and it seems like 9 months.

Well I hope that next letter it will be danger with more details and a little WARMER.

The only way we can tell each other how we feel wright now is in writing so please don’t make me feel as if you don’t care.

I’ll write again tomorrow good night for now and remember you are mine alone million of kisses.

Dear Sal:

I figured that by today I would receive an answer to my letter I wrote to the government and the I.B.M. but I didn’t get any reply yet. I also didn’t hear from you today. I hope to get a letter tomorrow.

Sal please write everyday even if its only a few lines. I wait for your mail just as much as you do for my. Pity not to make you wait and drop you a letter every day. Beleave me I feel pretty best if I don’t get any mail.

Today I heard from Mr. Sharper from the IBM and he asked me to come in to start to work in Thursday evening.

I’m going in at 5 o’clock P.M. (Straight from work) its just for that one night. I will go in at 6 o’clock P.M. after that.

The bos wants me to meet the girls before he leaves at 5:30 so that’s why I’m going in at 5 o’clock.

When I talked to Mr. Sharper today I asked if I could work on Saturday and only 2 night a week per hours each night) instead of 4 night straight. It would be much better for me that way.

She said he would try to do something for me and will let me know Thursday.

Sal I’m going to try it and see for how long I will be able to take the strain.

I want to do something with myself. I can’t sit back and think every night that would, (or will) drive me crazy.

Every time I stop to think how faraway you are, and how long it will be way before I see you makes me shake.

Some how I can’t take the tention.

I most sound
