I am writing to thank you for issuing my 50 year Gold Card and invitation to this years Celebration Luncheon. I will be unable to attend and have already RSVP to Annie a member of your staff. I am currently living in Windermere, FL which makes it difficult for me to be in attendance. I would love to be there to see some of my friends from Class 155. In addition I want to thank you for the idea of honoring the 50 year members in this way, it certainly makes me feel like I am still a viable part of the FOP. Also, your continued work on behalf of retiree's benefits is much appreciated. Best wishes for your future endeavors. Fraternally yours, Anthony Rice Inspector ( Ret.) ~~~ March 29, 2013 Dear John, It was nice to see you last night. Thank you for informing me that the F.O.P. is endorsing my candidacy.

Dear John, On behalf of all of the members of the Philadelphia Police and Fire Football Club, I am pleased to be able to continue our financial support of the FOP Survivors’ Fund. Enclosed please find a check in the amount of Three-Thousand ($3000.00) to Police Survivors’ Fund. I know you are a great supporter of our club and know of the tireless efforts of our board. I especially want to commend the efforts and contributions of Officer Joe Hansbury. Joe's role as Vice-President and founder of the football team are sometimes lost in the annual fund-raising and football scramble. No one puts in more time and energy than Officer Hansbury. Also, Officer Michelle Winkis from the 26'" District recently accepted a role on our Board which was offered in appreciation for her hard work and commitment to the goals of the organization. I am proud to serve as President of the club and value my association with all of our members. We are grateful for your support of the football team and our mission. We certainly look forward to working with the FOP so that the football team gets better on the field and the organization grows stronger in the community. We have just closed out our tenth complete season and recognize our team's role in supporting key community efforts and are pleased to be associated with the Survivors fund. We certainly hope for your continued support and association with the program. Sincerely, Anthony DePaul President Philadelphia Police & Fire Football Club ~~~ FOP SENIOR CITIZENS, INC. Dear John, As you know, we scheduled an election for December 17th, 2012. Since the three incumbents were unopposed, we are proud to announce that Eugene Cummings, Mark Fisher, and Edmond Margerum will retain their positions as Board of Directors for the next three years. Please make the appropriate announcements to our members .. William Schmid President ~~~
