"I heard on the news you and your wife had caught the coronavirus. Are you okay?" wrote Corona. The boy also told Tom that he was being bullied by kids at school for his name, making him feel"sad and angry."Tom typed up a letter on his Corona typewriter and sent him a heartfelt response."Your letter made my wife and I feel so wonderful! Thank you for being such a good friend — friends make their friends feel good when they are down," wrote Tom.
"You know, you are the only person I’ve ever known to have the name Corona — like the ring around the sun, a crown," he continued.I was already getting teary-eyed reading the letter, but Tom ended it with an incredibly touching gift."I thought this typewriter would suit you. I had taken it to the Gold Coast, and now, it is back — with you. Ask a grown-up how it works. And use it to write me back."Alberto E.
Those who follow Tom on social media know the typewriter means a lot to him. Tom shared a picture of it back on March 17, with the caption"I travelled here with a typewriter, one I used to love."
