Thanks for sharing your positive spirit

Posted October 11, 2007 11:00 pm

I'd like to thank the young mother and her daughter who so creatively greeted the commuter train arriving at the Geneva station the afternoon of Sept. 21. Your Fox River salute to the commuters may not have been widely noticed, however it was a joy to behold. Clearly you and your daughter are courageous, are filled with the wonder of life, have a marvelous sense of humor and you have a magnificent spirit !

Although I admit that it was the initial wave that caught my eye, it was watching you and your daughter share a tremendous laugh together that sticks in my mind. So my compliments to you both. I can't tell you how much your unexpected spontaneity up lifted my own spirits.

So it is my hope that those who know you well appreciate your spirit and embrace it fully. Thanks for a good laugh.
