Mr. Page,
It's me Diego Gamboa. Well, let me tell you how happy I was to receive your letter today. I looked at the web site and I got to see everyone. Tell Ms. Shaeffer, Ms.Thomas and Ms. Thames they haven't aged a bit. Mr. Harrod and you look good to. Well, as I said I have been in the Navy for 5 years now, I have see over 11 different countries and I got to drive several ships through the Panama Canal. I have never forgotten the valuable lessons I learned there at Montessori. The most important thing I learned from all of you was a sense of family. Each one of you loved us like your own. I always looked up to you Mr. Page and Ms. Shaeffer you were my family all of you were. I really wish you all could know the impact you had on my life. I learned about culture and how to swim. I learned that everyone is the same no matter how they look. I truly miss all of you. I remember so very much. I'm proud to know that I was part of the first graduating class there at Montessori. I remember all of my friends I miss all of them too. I attached some pictures of me and my family. Next time I have leave I promise you all I will visit you. I thank each and every one of you for all of the hard work you put into us.
Love,
Diego Gamboa
