Shalom u'Vrachah!

I acknowledge receipt of your letter from Rosh Chodesh Iyar in which you also write about your wife, Mrs. Faygele. At an auspicious time she will again be mentioned at the holy resting place of my father-in-law, the Rebbe zatzal, for a speedy improvement in her health. Together with her, may you both merit long days and years filled with nachas—Jewish nachas—from children and grandchildren who should live and be well.

Especially according to what you wrote regarding your lineage—which included many details that were new and pleasant news to me—may this stand by you in all the above-mentioned matters. As is also well known from the statement of our Sages: 'Zrok chutra la'avira avikra kai' (Throw a stick into the air; it lands on its root), especially regarding chassidic warmth and vitality that your ancestors received from our Rebbeim—the founders of Chabad Chassidus. It is known that the words of tzaddikim and their actions endure forever and have a real effect in daily life. Certainly these actions will further increase G‑d's blessings in all the above-mentioned matters.

I await good news and sign with blessings for good tidings.

I received not long ago your letters about her improved health condition. Many thanks as well for the photo of your granddaughters—may they live long lives.

Summary

The Rebbe teaches that chassidic heritage and the deeds of tzaddikim have enduring power to bring blessings in health and family life. Drawing on one's lineage strengthens faith and brings tangible positive outcomes in daily living.
