Hey One Eagle!

Hey you this is Angel Shockley. How are you? I hope you got my snail mail letter by now letting you know that you are NOT giving me too much to do for you. I am here to help you, so do NOT worry you are not putting too much on my plate. As for the pro death penalty sites I have to join all their sites in order to post your information and I have to admit I do NOT want to get updates and messages from those kinds of people, so I was wondering would you mind if I printed out your letter to pro death penalty advocates and send it to them via snail mail? I could leave all your contact information and mine as well and let you know the second they contact me. Let me know what you think of this. I hope you are doing well and got my letter. God bless you my friend and keep your chin up, I am getting your case out there. Lots of likes on facebook already and I put 2 posts of Twitter about you. I can print them out and send them to you. I am here for you so please let me know if there is anything else you would like me to do for you.
Your Friend Always;
Angel Shockley

Hey Dad…that's pretty cool to say. It's me, Allen. I don't really know what to say, which is weird for me since I'm a man of many words, considering. I just want to know how your doing, which is stupid to say, but yeah…I'm just kinda overwhelmed…I hope you can get back to me Dad, I love you.

Hi Bill, Sorry I haven't written in a while. On the good side, this is really happening isn't it?! To others who would visit Bill: I can say from the viewpoint of a pretty descent person, who has never done drugs, who has never committed a crime, who has been a descent law abiding citizen and who is trying to help everyone around him; that William Goehler is one of the best people I know. I'm not saying he is totally "normal" but that may be what is best about him. No one I've ever met has been more willing to change and been able to do it just by studying. I understand about what he has done and the crazy things that he has been up to in the past. I think I've helped to get him pulled out of the depths of what he was in. But we are all in the same boat to one degree or another. There are causes and explanations and perhaps justifications for why we all do things; but in the end, man IS basically good. So, when he does things which are "bad" and we don't understand why then it's common to shy away from that. But, doing that doesn't resolve anything for anyone. If we can take responsibility for each other and help each other to get better and to overcome our insanities then shouldn't we? It in fact isn't correct to lock someone away with no rehabilitative efforts and to have the sunshine taken out of his life for the rest of his life without having a purpose or hope. True, enough, he is responsible for his actions; but so are we and what about our responsibility toward him? That is what is missing to a marked degree in society. I don't mean to be lecturing but it's just what I was thinking. I am Bill's friend now, so because of that I am writing on his blog to try to be in communication with him and others who would visit him. But, you are already on your way to seeing Bill; and it's definitely an adventure, but I think one you will want to repeat. I hope these words are of some use. All your words and hopes for Bill are awesome to be able to see.
Best, Joe R.

Hey dad, it's Hannah. Sorry it took so long to find you. I just got back in contact with Destiny and she told me about you're website and now I'm here. Being completely honest I don't know a lot about you but I've heard some stories from my adopted mom that I'm hoping aren't as true as she makes them seem. No matter what you did, I still love you. How are you doing in there? I can only imagine what it's like. AJ and I are doing better if you were wondering. We've been through hell and back but then again so has everyone else so I can't really complain. Destiny sent me some of the cards you gave us when we were little and to be honest, I cried. You are a great drawer, I'm kinda jealous, I love drawing but it comes out like crap most of the time.
One day I'm hope to bring aj up with me and we will visit all of you finally. It's been forever. I'll tell AJ he can write to yo use expect something from him sometime soon. I'll keep in touch. Love you.

I have talked to Rhonda today several time's. You know we have our differences. All I care about is you'r well being. All I want is for you to be okay.
I will do what I can to make things as easy as I can for you...no matter what. If you need me for any reason just let me know. What Rhonda say's, has no reflection on me. That's between you and you'r sister.

From wikipedia: "The red wolf (Canis rufus,[3] formerly Canis lupus rufus[4]), also known as the Florida wolf or Mississippi Valley wolf"
Apparently it seems that the Canis Lupus is the grey wolf.
So you're a lone wolf, huh? I can totally understand why you're one considering the kind of packs that exist in prison... Just like the wolves, we are generally a collective animal but sometimes we end up alone even if we're surrounded by people. I guess that's the worse kind of loneliness when one feels alone around others. Perhaps the hermitic kind of loneliness is not so bad because there's no one around you physically and there's a real excuse to be alone. People who isolate themselves get company from their own thoughts. Not many have this virtue and therefore become unbalanced and crazy with time. My advice to you is that you don't give up on finding a cool guy to speak your mind to. It might seem impossible but probably you're not the only intelligent guy in your prison even though you're outnumbered...
I read some of your posts and I think they're pretty interesting. I'll definitely keep checking them. I'm from Portugal by the way.

Regards, Rui

Hey Joe. It's Tim. Although I have not been to see you since you were moved back to Lieber, I do think about you often and keep meaning to come see you again. It is good to hear that you are able to keep your mind occupied. I am not a reader. I might have read one book since high school! I read "The Client" by John Grisham. I admit I really liked it, but somehow I just find it so difficult make myself read. I started a second book by Grisham, "A Painted House" but alas, I did not stay with it. If I were to go back to it again I would have to start all over because I have forgotten what happened in the part I already read!
Mama will be 89 in November. She has been in the hospital a couple of times this year. Once because her heart went into Afib and once because of low hemoglobin and had to have a blood transfusion. They did not find where she was loosing blood, so in another few months, she may have to have another.

We may not always do or say the thinks we should, but just know we are thinking of you.

Tim
