Best wishes for you in your recovery, I just got a message today from Carlo via Laura in Berlin of the accident. It must be very empowering to see through this situation how many lives you have touched and left an inprint on that reverberate back to you now. Oddly in my case it is no small part you played in my profession as an electrician and my life here now in Portland Oregon. All through a recommendation or rather an extension of your kindness to someone you didn’t know that well to help me with my relocation from Germany to San Francisco that winds back through the years now that leads me to the place I am today. I am forever grateful to you and have not fully expressed that to you in the past. Thankyou. The best part still lays ahead, that would take some time to explain, I have plans, but I am confident the same applies to you as well. Let the love and kindness you have generated now strengthen you as you receive these messages and actions of love and support.
Peace of mind and strength of love to you and your family,
Michael Newland
