Share Your Thank You Letters

The following request is from Elaine Ayala, Features Writer, San Antonio Express-News:

Dear readers, For a Thanksgiving feature package this month, I'm looking for people who have saved precious thank-you letters in their archives. I'm hoping to find a teacher who held on to a moving letter from a long-ago student, or a nurse who received a thank-you note months or years after caring for a patient. Perhaps you know someone on the police force or a firefighter who received such a note. Maybe there's a sweet, funny note from a child conveying thanks.

Dig them up. I'm fashioning a story around a handful of the best ones I can find. Please feel free to forward this note to other San Antonians and South Texas needed for this feature. Deadline is Nov. 17.

Send copies of letters (not originals), photos and details to: SAY THANK YOU c/o S.A. Life San Antonio Express-News P.O. Box 2171 San Antonio, TX 78297

You may send letters and other materials electronically, with attached JPEG or PDF files, to eayala@express-news.net. Please include your full name and daytime telephone number.

Thanks!
