Letter to editor lauds Presidents' Club Maine South's clubs and organizations have worked hard over the year to serve both the school and the community. Following is a letter commending the PresiderUs' Club for its efforts at Lutheran General Hospital during Christmas break. Dear Members of the Presidents' Club, While my daughter was in Lutheran General Hospital in the middle of December, she received a lovely gift from you. She was 7 weeks old at the time and hospitalized for a high fever of unknown origin. We had a very trying and difficult time in the hospital, and I remember so clearly how really special, wonderful, and helpful it was to be visited by a few of your members, and to receive a lovely clear plastic ball with butterflies in it. The very kind young man who gave it to us told us that his mother said that he had a similar toy which was his favorite. Now, this toy is my daughter's favorite, and she loves to watch the ball roll and the butterflies spin.
1 cannot begin to express to you my gratitude for your kindness and thoughtfulness; it really was a ray of sunshine that really, really helped a difficult situation be not so bad. Your caring and generosity will always be treasured and remembered.
My daughter is doing fine and is now 22 weeks old, and every day I am thankful for her and reminded of your kindness to us. Most sincerely and gratefully, Sharon Gassner
