Helen Fuertges Hickey 2012

Hi John,

Denny and Val have been keeping me up to date on the Silver Streak excitement. I think it is so fabulous that you have bought the car and are doing all these great things with it. When I heard about the event with Mr Ford I told Mom that I thought it was a super idea ,and I’m so glad she wants to be part of it. Kathy and I were with her when she recorded her memories and that was a lot of fun for us.  I  hope the day at Bradley with Mr. Ford goes well and that he shows a lot of enthusiasm and respect for the Silver Streak and all that were involved with it. You’re doing something really wonderful and I want to thank you very much for getting Mom involved in this.  All the best,. – Rosemary Hickey Welch
