Re: Commendation

Dear Mr. Vance:

My wife Grace and I would like to thank you and your people for your sympathetic concern about the welfare of our six-year-old son, John Victor Stoen. Each of the individuals in the Department of State whom I have met has shown himself to be highly professional and a real credit to State. These include Elizabeth Powers, Steven Dobranchuk, Michele Bova, Fred Henneke, Michelle Truit, and Frank Tumminia.

Please thank them for us.

Sincerely,
/s/ Timothy Oliver Stoen
