Letter from Mrs. King

Here’s one from the correspondence files from many years ago. A friend worked at the Martin Luther King Federal Holiday Commission, and volunteers were needed for an event they held in DC. So I helped out, mostly to be able to hang out with a buddy. But I still got thanked by Mrs. King for the very very tiny part that I played in helping make today a holiday.  And I remember this tagline, “It’s a day ON, not a day off!”  I need to work on living up to that.
