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...<BR>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.<BR>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. <BR>And
Jesse, I couldn't believe it, but tears came to my eyes... it was like
the stone had been brought to life again.<BR>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.<BR>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.
