151 ONE MUST REMEMBER ALWAYS TO BE GRATEFUL FOR GOOD FRIENDS AND TO BE QUICK TO HELP A FRIEND OUT IN HER TIME OF NEED


GENTLEMEN,

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR KIND FINANCIAL HELP IN MY TIMES OF NEED.

BOB - YOU'LL LOVE THIS:  WE FOUND BRADLEY THE GIRL OF HIS DREAMS (YOUNG WOMAN, ACTUALLY) AND MY FOLKS WERE SO EAGER TO KICK HIS ASS OUT OF THE HOUSE THAT THEY GAVE HIM $58.50 FOR THE TRAIN TO CHICAGO AND THEN AMTRAK TO DETROIT.  I GAVE HIM A BRIEF CASE WHICH CONTAINED A 300 PAGE MANUSCRIPT MY SON AND HIS COUSINS AND I HAD SPENT 10 YEARS CREATING.  I HAD BEEN LOOKING FOR IT FOR THE LAST 5 YEARS.  PRAISE YOU JESUS, THANK YOU LORD!

BILL - THINGS DID NOT WORK OUT AS I HAD HOPED.  I GOT THE WORST TRANSPORTATION INFORMATION I'VE EVER RECEIVED IN MY LIFE.  JUST GOD'S WAY OF LETTING ME KNOW IT IS NOT YET TIME TO GO.  I WILL REPAY YOUR $20 MY FRIEND.

TOM - THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE RIDE, AND YOUR EVER CALMING PRESENCE.  BRADLEY LATER ASKED ME, "DO YOU KNOW EVERYBODY IN CHICAGO?"

      "NO," I ANSWERED.  "BUT I DO KNOW THE BEST OF THE BEST."

WITH PERPETUAL GRATITUDE,
Mark Raymond Ganzer
