To the editor:
As a recipient of the Earl Peters Award, I would like to express my gratitutde as this award afforded me the opportunity to attend college and obtain a degree that probably would not have been attainable otherwise.
Your tasteful article is an outstanding tribute to Thomas W. Kelly and the ultimate sacrifice he made to establish a perpetual academic scholarship for the benefit of others.
