"Thanksgiving Message - Thanksgiving reminds us again of the deep need in human hearts to express thanks to a Divine Providence for all things that bring happiness to our daily living...so we join in prayerful gratitude for those many things with which, in most parts of our world today, we are so richly blessed.
Around these tables which you share here with new friends, may you pause for a moment and to yourown hearts and in your own way express thanks for the food, for your place of service to our country, for health and happiness, and for the love of family and friends.
In this i join gladly with you, and pray also that we may prove worthy of the trust our country has placed in us...to preserve this great nation and its way of life for our children and the generations that follow them...a rich and proud heritage for which we can all be truly grateful."
See photos for detailed condition - this is the item you will receive. There are no tears or creases, but the menu has been "handled" and the gloss finish on the paper is not as crisp as it likely started out as.
