A Letter From President Bush
THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
June 11, 1992
Dear Mr. Baki:
I was delighted to learn of your outstanding work
in behalf of your community. Your generosity and
willingness to serve others merit the highest praise,
and I am pleased to recognize you as the 797th "Daily
Point of Light."
Since taking office as President, I have urged all
Americans to make community service central to their
lives and work. Judging by your active engagement in
helping others, it is clear that you understand this
obligation.
We must not allow ourselves to be measured by the sum
of our possessions or the size of our bank accounts.
The true measure of any individual is found in the way
he or she treats others - and the person who regards
others with love, respect, and charity holds a price-
less treasure in his heart. With that in mind, I have
often noted that, from now on in America, any definition
of a successful life must include serving others. Your
efforts provide a shining example of this standard.
Barbara joins me in congratulating you and in sending
you our warm best wishes for the future. May God bless
you always.
Sincerely,
George Bush
