I think you want to redefine the \opening command to draw your
letterhead before putting down the date.  Something like:

    \def\opening#1{\letterhead
     \thispagestyle{empty}
     {\raggedleft\begin{tabular}{l}\ignorespaces
     \today \end{tabular}\par}
     \vspace{2\parskip}
     {\raggedright \toname \\ \toaddress \par}\vspace{2\parskip}
     \noindent #1\par\nobreak}
