Default Merge Field varies in length

I have a merge field that can vary in length from one to four lines long.
No matter how long the merge field is I need two blank lines, no more or no
less, after the merge field before the salutation.

Someone suggested using a one-cell table with a fixed row height, but I am
not sure how to do this. Any other suggestions or instructions on how to
accomplish this?

Example letter:

Date:

To: «DefendantName» (can be one to four lines long)
**need blank row here
**need blank row here
Dear .........
