Dear  Jesse,    I went to the fountain dedication this morning... when we  
arrived the place was full of people ...  sitting on the fountain rim,  
strolling about,  passing to and from the farmers market... the weather  was 
perfect, not too hot... and the mood alight with the pleasure of summer in  the 
park...
But though there was water in the basin,   it wasn't  running.  And that 
was because first there were speeches under the  tent... when  your name was 
mentioned and mentioned in recognition of  your tenacious work and belief in 
the fountain.
And then the speeches were  over,  Mayor Tavares led the count down. and 
after a pause the water  began to flow down the concave tower into the small 
basins out the mouths of  those wonderful deco faces ... and everyone clapped 
and clapped.  
And  Jesse,  I couldn't believe it, but tears came to my eyes... it was 
like  the stone had been brou_ght to life again.
When we left the fountain was  still rimmed with children cooling their 
feet in the water...what a  quintessential pleasure, what a memory  of growing 
up in the city.
So  this is to say thank you so much for making it happen... you and all 
the  people who got behind the idea in so many ways.   Elizabeth
