My sister has written a letter to my other sister with a lot of lies about me. She has been telling these lies for over twenty years, these lies have caused me untold anguish, has alienated my two oldest sons. I believe these lies may have had something to do with my husband being shot to death by my nephew. This happened over twenty years ago. I have never had proof of these lies before but now I do thanks to the letter.
