To the editor:

I am writing this letter to share my feelings about a person who has had a tremendous impact on my life. I could say my parents, family, friends and even my teachers and I would be correct in saying that they have all influenced my life greatly, but this person truly has been the key figure in who I have become today.I, like most people, have suffered many fears, anxieties and feelings of self pity and depression. Four years ago at a very low point in my life this person sat down with me and suggested medical help.I took this message to heart and sought help through prescribed medication. At that point my mind and body were healed but I knew that there was still something missing. Three weeks ago that final piece of the puzzle was given to me through a thoughtless action on my part. My life has changed so greatly that it is impossible to describe the feeling of peace I have come to know. Four years ago my body was healed, three weeks ago my spirit was healed. The person’s name who has helped so much is Gary Fisher, and the only way I could come close to thanking him would be to do it publicly. Thank you, Gary, for the part you have played in bringing me to this place in my life, and I know that my family REALLY wants to thank you as well.Dale Nelson,Luverne
