Dear Uncle John,
Thank you so much for buying my pigs…Martha and Stewart! I hope that if you ate them…they tasted good. They were the ones that had the most personality out of all my pigs. I’m so glad that you bought my pigs this year and I highly appreciate it.
Love always,

Dear Grafton,

Dear Mr. John Imo,
Thank you very much for buying my lambs at the 4-H Auction on August 4, 2006. Your generous purchase has made my time raising the lambs worthwhile. Your support of the Large Animal Projects at the 4-H Auction is important to the success of 4-H youth. I am sorry I did not thank you in person that evening, but I had to help my brother sell his lambs. I looked for you after but could not find you. You have once again shown that you are a strong supporter of Airport students and the Carleton community.
Sincerely,
Andrew Baker
P.S. Maybe I’ll get to run into you at the Grafton Inn and thank you in person!!
Thank you for buying my hogs at the Monroe County Fair. This is my first year with hogs and it was a very fun learning experience for me. I can’t wait until next year. The money that I earned will go to my college education.
Thank you,
