Asking Eric: My daughter doesn't know about these letters her beloved father left her
Briefly

Your husband has given your daughter an immensely touching gift. I'd encourage you to give your daughter the letters, as soon as it feels right to you.
These letters represent a desire to do something that is impossible for humans, but achievable for love: to reach out and touch the future.
Your husband's prognostication about weddings and children aren't wish fulfillment so much as a reflection of his hope that your daughter is happy in life.
While the letters may contain hopes for a path she's not taking, you can frame them as what they are: the continuing echo of his love.
