Dear Mike -

I received your letter when I arrived home last night. I was greatly surprised and highly flattered when I read it -- My feeling is that it is an honor to me out of all proportion to anything I have done. Nevertheless I appreciate the spirit of all concerned and shall most certainly be present at the dinner August 25th.

With sincere good wishes to you and all concerned
Fred D Smith
