(Editor’s note: In the following letter, DeZurik Cierniak is referring to a feature story written about her life. The front-page story, headlined with “Music wove its magic through Joann’s life,” was published in the April 4 Newsleader.)
Dear Dennis (Dalman), thank you and the Newsleaders publisher for choosing to run the article on music in my life in such a prominent place in your publications.
The headline clearly stated what the article would be about and that it would cover a long period of time. Ever since it ran, my Woodcrest neighbors have been knocking at my door and telling me how interesting they found the article to be, even people who usually pay no attention to news having to do with classical music. Two women told me they cried while reading it!
You certainly know what moves, touches and arouses curiosity and sympathy in your readers, Dennis! BRAVO….. and best wishes to the future of the Newsleaders.
