Praise for those who helped

Anonymous Newburyport Daily News The Daily News of Newburyport Wed Oct 24, 2012, 03:00 AM EDT

To the editor:

This is a thank-you to all those people who have worked with me since 1978 on my home and have been very responsible and fair and have come on a moment’s notice. They are all important and I realize how very much I care about them. Charlie Laudani Plumbing and Heating, Bill Kilkelly (and crew) Contracting Service, Richard’s Home Appliance, Al’s Electrical, Gordon’s Sew and Vac (Mat), Nantucket Stock Exchange Too (Nan an excellent cook and designer) and Art’s Auto Center (Ipswich).

You all know how important you are. I couldn’t be at work without you!
