Dear Tom,

The picture is of me with my wife Audrey. The place is probably Shanghai in 1949 when I was a Captain for CITS for a 4 month period until returning to Hong Kong in April 1949. Audrey is with me here and is well. Her brother Gibby (Russell Gibson) died last year unexpectedly. Gibby, who joined CNAC in 1943, was my partner when we left CNAC and started a small charter airline in Hong Kong.

My address in New York is 880 Fifth Avenue, Apartment 9D, New York, NY 10021-4951.

Audrey and I left Hong Kong in November 2002 after living their for 54 years. I still go back each year as I still have my company there, General Resources Limited.

All the best,

Johnny
