Hello,

They needed a response by noon, today.  So, Mary and I have decided to
invite her to our house.  We will need all the advice and good thoughts each
of you have.  I am really looking forward to the challenge and the
opportunity to share with a blind youth.  

Warmest regards,

Fred

Well, if she is not definitely coming to Michigan, there are several
families here in Nebraska thw might be interested.  I have shared this
message with my friend Fatos Floyd.  She is a Turkish American, member of
the federation of course, and may be able to help.
