It may have been your first teaching assignment; you were unmarried then and I knew you as Miss Goodwin. There is no reason for you to remember me. I was one of thousands of children that passed through that school system. However, I do have many fond memories of you. I enjoyed school very much and the lessons were always interesting and challenging. I remember vividly your concern for me during those troubled days of my young life.</span></h4><h4><h4 style="MARGIN: auto 0in"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Garamond; BACKGROUND: white; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt">My parents were irresponsible, angry people who were unable to care for children properly. I dressed poorly and some of my classmates had begun to tease me about my (lack of) personal hygiene. Many times you interceded and gave me clothes that you said would no longer fit your younger brother. They were clean, warm and colorful. I was happy to have them. Your actions had a lasting affect on me that I did not understand until many years later after I grew up.</span><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Garamond; BACKGROUND: white"><p /><h4 style="MARGIN: auto 0in"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Garamond; BACKGROUND: white; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt">I did not know it at the time, but your kindness provided me with a “standard of measure” that I used during those lonely, horrible days to compare my parents' views of the world with that of my teacher. No matter how intense the abuse became at home I never lost sight of the fact that there was goodness in the world; that there was an alternative to my parents' malevolence; and that I had first hand knowledge of it - from you.</span><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Garamond; BACKGROUND: white"><p /><h4 style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Garamond; BACKGROUND: white; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt">I hope that you will see by the content of this letter that the path I chose was one you helped me to see and to appreciate. This is what I have wanted to tell you, and to thank you for, all these years.</span><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Garamond; BACKGROUND: white"><p /><h4 style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Garamond; BACKGROUND: white">I realize that we live in a time when kneeling or bowing is associated with subjugation. But I believe that there are still things that can make a man want to kneel, bareheaded. Your gracious concern for a troubled child is one of them.<p /><h4 style="MARGIN: auto 0in"><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Garamond; BACKGROUND: white; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt">Greatfully Yours,</span><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Garamond; BACKGROUND: white"><p /><p><span style="FONT-FAMILY: Garamond; BACKGROUND: white; FONT-SIZE: 12pt"><font size="2">Louie Carter</font></span></p></span></h4></span></h4></span></h4></span></h4></span></h4></h4></h4></h4></h4></h4></span></span>
