To the editor:
In response to the article "Cape couple wins home in drawing to benefit Memphis hospital": I was a very willing participant in the dream-house drawing for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. I sat at home Sunday afternoon waiting anxiously to hear my name called as the winner. Imagine my surprise when Richard Hogan's named was announced. I cannot imagine what name they could have announced that would have made me happier. I have known Richard and Sharon for years, and I could not think of a more deserving couple. They have had some bad breaks over the last few years, yet their spirits have never faltered. There is more to this story than who won the dream house. In my opinion, it is God working silently among us.
