LETTER TO THE EDITOR
(and to the readers of the Kodiak
Mirror)
Dear Friends,
As we are departing from Ko
diak, we would like to say good
bye to each and everyone of our
friends. Being here in Kodiak for
twelve years, we have made many
friends, and find that it is impossi
ble to personally say farewell to
each of you. So we are taking the
liberty of conveying this message
in this simple way.
We enjoyed being part of, and
taking part in this growing com
munty.
With God’s will, our paths will
some day cross again.
Au Revoir,
Herbert and Flora Spiegel
