Dear Al Purdy,
You've been dead over four years now, and things have changed a lot since then. Mordecai's dead too, for example. I'd like you to come back, because I think we need you, but mostly because I miss you. I've been reading your stuff (I'm always reading your stuff) and I'm sorry you didn't get to keep going. I don't care that you were old; I think there were still a couple of good poems in you.
Anyway, I hope you are well.
Your fan,
Nathan
PS. If you run into Mordecai please give him my regards as well.
