Karl is too modest!

I just found this message on my email, and wanted to share it with you all. Edward and I have always felt that you kids have been such great children, and when we see the problems that so many other people have with their kids, we feel so humble that you have all been so good. We have never felt that it is anything in particular that we've done special, but just that Heavenly Father sent down some wonderful spirits to come and live in our home. Anyway, this is a tribute to all of you, especially you older siblings that helped get Karl up every morning, fed, and out the door, since I always left for school before you did. I love you all and am grateful to be your mom.


To the family of Karl Gimbel

Hello. My name is Dwight Worker. I was your son's instructor in Systems
Analysis and Design this semester.

I want to tell you that Karl was a very good student in my class.
He worked hard and had a positive attitude in class. He earned a solid 'A' and
had perfect attendance. He is
also well-spoken and mannered. My father would have said about him that he
was 'well brought up'.

My son recently graduated from IU. I know how we, as parents, can worry
about how well our children are doing. I feel confident in saying that Karl
will succeed in
whatever he chooses in life.


Good work!

Sincerely,

Dwight Worker
Professor of Information Systems
Kelley School of Business

I didn't mention this in the post, but it is interesting to note that this is the very selfsame professor who "wrote Karl a rude email" and who was a drug smuggler who escaped from a Mexican prison. I went back in to the September and October blogs to check this out, because I was just curious.

Hmmmmmm.....very interesting.
