The Smathers
Dear editor:
Thank you so very much for your lovely article about the Smathers family (April 2, by Gini Davis). So many people growing up with hard troubles could be encouraged by learning of this story.
It is wonderful to know that if you come from a “bad” or “hard” background that you can become a loving wife and/or husband and raise loving children.
They are willing to take foster children that will be difficult to care for because of the love they have for each other and their family.
May God bless them. Many people have found the love of Christ to help them overcome. I do not know the Smathers but thank them for what they are doing to help the unloved and helpless in the world.
