"Thank You, Mr. Adamson"

Dear Mr. Adamson,

Happy Birthday.  We didn't get to my Tyner Class Reunion in June so I missed going by to visit you and Mrs. A.

When you first came to Bonny Oaks, I was one of Mom Turner's girls at the Big Girls Building, Sara K. Patten Hall.  All my memories are good ones.  Oh, I do remember having appointments to come to your office.  Some of the girls called it "a summons to Mr. Adamson's office".  I remember most of the time I felt much better after leaving that before arriving.  You always had words of encouragement.  You had a pleasant, positive voice.  And you seldom raised your voice to me.

You helped me learn to think before I acted - to analyze a situation or problem and to see how I could improve or do better next time.  So I give you credit for my making a plan and working it and sticking to it.

I am thankful God put you in my life.  There is so much more I could write.  I will keep you in my prayers.  Paul and I have fond memories of you and Mrs. A., and we hold both of you in very high esteem.

God Bless You and Mrs. A. Always,

Joyce Stover Rowell
