To Whom It May Concern,

It is not every day that a stranger goes out of their way for you, and I want to be sure the kindness I met at your Lansdowne Street bakery last Saturday reaches the right ears. My husband and I retired to Fredericton two months ago to be closer to our grandchildren. Between the boxes still to unpack and the streets we do not yet know, I have not once managed to get caught up on the ordinary chores, and the days since have run together in a blur.
