A Parent's Thanks

Last week (July.2011), with the graduation of Matan, one of the lads from the Kemper Group House, his parents presented two letters, one to Baruch, the Group House director, the other to the staff of the Group House. The texts speak for themselves:

DEAR BARUCH,

We just wanted to say thanks

For all your help to us,

For being there and never giving up,

Helping us make our dream come true.

Thank you for your charming presence

And for proving to us all that, yes,

There is such a thing as a director who cares,

Who is generous, with his staff as well.

Thank you for having found the time to be a friend,

Thank you for enabling us to get to know you

And discovering someone we could rely on,

Even in hours of crisis.

Simply -

Thank You!

 

                              *                        *                             *

TO THE GROUP HOUSE
 

Neither words nor space can suffice

To express our appreciation

For the warm and personal attention,

And every detail taken into consideration;

For the care and follow-up that was extended,

Two-fold of course of the expected, and for your devotion to our son.

With endless patience and compassion and virtues all of you possess,

You were Matan's beloved companions, sparing no efforts towards assured success.

You deserve every praise for the outcome we enjoy.

All our thank-you's and our blessings can't truly express our deepest feelings,

But rest assured that our "Thank you" is sincerely from the heart.

Bless you.
