Just because you don't like writing, doesn't mean writing is bad, or that no one likes it.
First of all, I'm sorry for the loss of your mother.

My mother was in her 90's when she sent me her first message on a computer. I saved it to this day with a cellphone picture. No one is saying that anyone's mother still can't send a letter, just use a different technique. But we don't need a USPS for people to move their messages around any longer and even people at our ages are very adept using computers. It's like saying we still need dial up phones because that's what Mom and Dad enjoyed. The times they are a changin.. and our nation is broke.
