I am grateful to the South Hampton Roads community for its donation of $6,225 through the United Way of South Hampton Roads to aid in disaster-relief efforts in Oklahoma City. The generous outpouring of love and support, as well as a concern for our community, will never be forgotten.
Words will never be able to express the devastation and grief caused by the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City on April 19. A senseless tragedy such as this filled our nation with sorrow and compassion, yet culminated in an overwhelming generosity of people helping people.
TOM B. BROWN, president
