Dear Mr. Secretary:

One of the real regrets that I feel over President Ford's loss
this last November is knowing that we are also losing you as
an efficient, courageous and able administrator.

Your tenure as Secretary of State is one marked by unusual
excellence. You served at a time requiring tough, good de-
cisions. I'm sure that, as the years pass, history will tell
us you made a clear majority of right decisions.

Thank you for the good job you have done for America.

ful letter.

Dear Mr. Kissinger

Possibly your find it very hard to quit your office of
a minister of foreign affairs.

I assure You my sincere thanks and respect for Your
achievements especially in the Near East.

As I had been on both, the Arab and the Israeli side
I know something of the hatred, despise misunderstandings
on both sides.

To reach the Egytian - Israeli agreement was worthy a
second Nobel prize for peace.

I consider also extraordinarily praiseworthy Your kind
attitude towards Germany and the finishing the Vietnam
war.

I just now finished reading your wonderful article in TIME magazine for December 27, 1976. It is so practical, and so inspiring, I wish to dash off this note of congratulations.

At this time I wish also to express to you my sincere thanks for all your efforts over the past years in behalf of the United States, and in behalf of World peace.

People everywhere owe you a vote of thanks for all your skill and work in making dreams become reality.

Most of all we have to thank you for giving us ideals that ennoble reality and enable us to shape our future.

God love you, and keep you.

May the New Year bring you every Blessing.
