Thanks Chaplain Keith!

Dear Champlain Williams,

My name is Bill W. of Kerrville Texas. I am 73, my wife is 72 and is a patient at M.D. Anderson Cancer Hospital in Houston. After a strange accident in the M.D. Anderson parking garage, where I had lost my eye glasses, I was asked by a really nice fellow if I needed help. Well, since I could not see much, I asked if he was a deputy sheriff. "No," he said, "I am a chaplain." My wife was waiting for me at her Doctor's office, then to be admitted for her treatment. This special man was Sr. Chaplain Dr. Keith Robinson.

To make a long and very meaningful success story short, Chaplain Keith, met and cheered up my wife, drove me to four eye glass doctor/shops. He was obviously highly skilled in communication, personal relations and medical issues all with real kindness to all involved and with a great sense of humor.

I had my much needed new glasses in about four hours. I became very interested in Keith’s work and the organization. I am blessed to have a ranch here in the central Texas Hill Country. I have invited Keith and his family to be our guests. He says he will come some time but he is always on a project "south America, Angel Flights", etc. I finally asked Keith (sort of demanded), your name so I could express my sincere admiration and appreciation for him and his work. It has been a real treat to know him. I simply cannot express what it is like to see him in action and wanted someone important in your organization to know.

Best Regards,

Bill W.
