Temple letter: Generous Idahoans
As a U.S. Army veteran of 22 years, I say to all your readers the following — I have found the people of Idaho, including the children, to be the most generous people in the world.
Being a veteran who has traveled around the world several times, I can say the foregoing. The people of the state of Idaho have turned out, even when their country economy is tough, to donate their time, and thousands of dollars in financial aid in tons of food to feed the hungry and less fortunate. The children bring their piggy banks and other items they save their money in to donate them.
The people in the state of Idaho make our country a better place to live.
Richard E. Temple, Boise
