DEAR ABBY: We received this letter the night before our daughter's wedding. It was Linda's gift to us. If you have room in your column, I am sure it will touch many people's hearts, as it did ours.
"Dearest Parents: On our wedding day, as my husband and I take our vows and make promises to each other, I make this promise to you as well. Even as I take him into my heart and life, I promise to keep you, parents dear, in my heart and life always.
"On this day, know that our love is not divided; it is multiplied, and you are embraced with the full measure of love and promises that he and I share here today.
"For I know that I am able to love and cherish him so much because you loved and cherished me first." -- BLOSSOM R. HOLLANDER, LOS ANGELES
DEAR BLOSSOM: What a beautiful tribute to you and your husband as parents, and to your daughter as well. Congratulations -- you raised a winner.
