Dear Les Quick III:
This is Jim Schlicht, one of your classmates from St. Bonas, Class of 1975. I was very disappointed that my health condition prevented me from seeing you at our 50th Class reunion at St. Bonas about 10 days ago.
I have had some bad luck with several back surgeries, which have left me with severe neuropathy in my legs and fee, leaving me unable to travel.
I want to thank you for all you have done for our beloved St. Bonaventure University over the years. You have been genuinely generous in a very unpretentious manner, which I truly appreciate.
Again, I am sorry to have missed you at our reunion. Sincerely, Jim Schlicht
