Dear Witt Family:
I remember Parker, and all the Witt children, from when I worked as the Assistant Director of the EDC at Saint Mary's Academy during the academic year of 1999-2000. I remember him as a wonderful, kind, intelligent boy and am therefore not surprised that he grew into such an outstanding teenager. He sweetly touched my mind and my heart that year--as I'm sure he did so many others--and I will always remember his quiet little dignity and his compassion.
