Thank You Meredith!

This week I received a very touch­ing let­ter, and I wanted to pub­licly acknowl­edge and thank the sender– Mered­ith. She is the daugh­ter of one of my wife’s dear­est friends, and she sent us a very nice note along with a check in sup­port of the Epilepsy Foun­da­tion of West­ern Ohio. What makes this really spe­cial is that Mered­ith lives half way across the coun­try and is only in the third grade. She came up with the idea on her own, and she raised all of the money herself.

Mered­ith, you are quite a remark­able girl. My fam­ily and count­less other fam­i­lies whom you have helped through your kind­ness, ini­tia­tive, and gen­eros­ity, truly appre­ci­ate your con­tri­bu­tion to the Epilepsy Foun­da­tion. I am hon­ored to know you. Thank you for remind­ing me of the good­ness of which human­ity is capa­ble. Your self­less act inspires and amazes me.
