It was Tom Rose’s 82nd birthday recently, which meant something for his cousin Richard Rose – time to mail the card the men exchange each year.

The cousins have been mailing this card back and forth, between Tom who lives in Sacramento, California, the United States, and Richard who is 78 and lives in Colorado Springs, for close to 20 years.
