Dear Mr. Lawrence:

It was wonderful having you and your wife, Gwen, here for Spelman's Commencement.  Everyone is still talking about what a lovely comfortable couple the two of you are.  I regret that things were so hectic that I did not get to spend more time with both of you.

On behalf of the Spelman family, I thank you for allowing us to bring honor to ourselves by honoring you. Within the next several weeks you will receive a small honorarium as a token of our very great appreciation.  

Sincerely, 

Barbara L. Carter
Barbara L. Carter
