Letters To The Editor - 19 July 1990
Dear Newkirk Friends,
I am writing you on my typewriter, but from my heart.
This letter of thanks is very important to me as it is a reminder of the warmth and concern that was extended to me during a most difficult time. I shall never be able to forget the immediate response that was given to me unquestioningly and without hesitation. From the "gang" down at the CharRon to Officer Stone, an unwavering community effort seemed more than a little evident in answering the alarm that I sounded, and which was evidently on standby in all your hearts and minds.
But the real aim
and purpose of this note is to remind you of what you are up against...
For whatever is going on out at the "space camp", you can be
sure it is not of any God that we as Christians of any denomination look
to.
You are a rare people in a time when most of the country is looking for "magic" solutions to all their troubles, when half the world seems to need a drug, or a drink, or an empty promise to lean on, it is a pleasure and comfort to know there are people who still know that a friend is really all the help that most of us ever really needed.
So, thanks friends,
/s/ John J. Carraro
