TLS as president, one page, 6.5 x 8.75, White House letterhead, May 15, 1995. Letter to Anne Robbins of Rockville, Maryland, on the Oklahoma City bombing. In full: "Thank you for writing about the tragic bombing in Oklahoma City and for sharing the inspiring historical quotation with me. As America seeks to recover from this brutal attack, we must do all we can to help heal the emotional and physical wounds, to rebuild Oklahoma City, and to bring to swift and certain justice those who committed this act of cowardice. Your words of encouragement mean a great deal to me during this difficult time for our nation." Matted and framed with a newspaper clipping of a 'letter to the editor' by Robbins, entitled "The Strength of Americans," to an overall size of 18.75 x 16.25. In the letter, Robbins shares a modified quote from Jacqueline Kennedy: "The heroes come when they are needed. When our belief gets pale and weak, there come people out of that need who are shining and everyone living reflects a little of that light and shores up some for the future." In very fine condition.
