                              Dear Friends,

                              I'd like to extend my warmest greetings to everyone
                                                th
                              attending the 39  Annual Celebration of Dr. Martin
                              Luther King Jr. Day hosted by the Dr. Martin Luther
                              King Jr. Commission of Mid-Michigan.

                              With this year’s theme, the measure of a country’s
                              greatness is its ability to retain compassion in times of
                              crisis, I would like to take this time to recognize all the
                              wonderful work that this peace walk has accomplished. I
                              am truly thankful for your hard work and dedication to
                              empowering the Black citizens of our state. As the largest

                              and longest established event in the state of Michigan
                              honoring Dr. King, there is no doubt that this event
                              serves as a resource to countless people and organizations
                              in Michigan and beyond. You will surely continue to
                              positively influence those around you for centuries to
                              come.

                              Again, I would like to send my best wishes to all those
                                                th
                              attending the 39  Annual Celebration of MLK Day.
                              Please accept my best wishes for an enjoyable and
                              memorable event, and may you continue to have success
                              in every endeavor.
