“To whom it may concern,

If this letter has found its way to a courtroom, then my beloved grandson, Marcus, is facing a trial of the heart. Marcus is a man of deep kindness and integrity, attributes that have carried him through life’s many challenges. I have watched him grow from a boy who faced adversity with courage to a man who has achieved success not just in wealth, but in character.

Though I may not be present, I trust that his actions and the goodness in his heart will speak for themselves. Marcus has always believed in the power of love and the sanctity of marriage. He deserves to be treated with respect and dignity, just as he accords to others. My only wish is that he is surrounded by those who truly appreciate the remarkable person he is, beyond material wealth.
