Editor, Gazette-Journal:

Mr. James and I would like to thank Mrs. Cagnon, principal, teachers and all the precious children at Botetourt school so very much for their part in his wonderful welcome home.

As you know, Mr. James (Andy) has been away from home a long time in hospitals and rehab centers getting better.

When we saw all those little smiling faces waving and cheering for him, it brought us so much joy!

Children of Botetourt Elementary: As you grow up, always remember to be kind to others, help those who are less fortunate and you will bring them joy and happiness too. Thank you so much. We love you all.

Roberta James

Gloucester, Va.
