Tribute to letter writer was touching

I would like to compliment your editorial staff for the wonderful tribute to letter writer Andy Chandler in the newspaper recently ("Now this is a writer," Aug. 28).

Your picture of Mr. Chandler's penmanship style brought back fond memories of my school years, when I was blessed with fine teachers who had similar writing styles. I have two friends with similar styles, but, sad to say, I was never able to exhibit such penmanship.

Your editorial about Mr. Chandler is what sets your paper apart from so many others. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
