Subject: Library Renamed for Maxwell Family

Perry,

A favorite quotation of my childhood was from our family minister, the Reverend Theodore Roosevelt Redmond, and it was: "Sometimes the world seems as right as it was commanded to be righteous. Sometimes the good, the fair, the just and the loving are given what they deserve while they live and their examples are still real and believable­-especially to young people."

Such are the examples of the five Maxwell sisters (see link below) from tiny Bathurst, New Brunswick, Canada. All of them graduated from Harvard: Cynthia ("Cindy") AB 1992, MD 1997; Linda AB 1996; Rita AB 1998, Ada AB 2002; Dina AB 2006.

This fall the Bathurst High School (from which they all graduated) will rename its library "The Maxwell Family Library" in honor of the five sisters, their mother Irene and their late father Samuel. HOW WONDERFUL!!!
