Dear Dr. Van Waters

We have given thanks to every one for your return to
us here at Framingham

As for myself Doctor, I humbly kneel each night and
give thanks to your "Mother" Mrs. Maude Van Waters

God Above was very Just when he called her to His side,
before the trying days of the hearing.

He had a purpose in mind, He wanted your dear Mother to
have a place aside of Him in Heaven so that she may be able to
Watch over and Guideyou every minute of the Day and Night.

"Mighty is the Hand that rocked the Cradle", and it
was her hand that rocked you when you were an infant, and from
her place in Heaven with your "Dad" her hand is still outstretched
guiding you, giving you the health and strength to carry on your
great work from the forgotten women of the "48" States.

Framingham was her home, to us all who loved and knew
her she was "Mother Van Waters" and Dr. Van Waters it is too her
we humbly owe our words of thanks.

She was and nver will be fogotten in our minds and
with the Glorious Season of Eater Coming - she will watch and
pray not just for yourself Doctor but for every one here at
Framingham

May the Almighty God and his Divine Mother Take
Good Care of Her so that she may be as Happy as
we are to Have her daughter Dr. Van Waters
Always by our side.

Margaret Newton Gr. I
