“…my proverbial hat is off to Melissa Glidden for her work on the introductory prose for the dedicated post. I was an editor in the news business for more than 40 years, and spent a lot of time trying to teach others writers and editors to do exactly what she accomplished here. Not only did she rewrite and add more information from our website or elsewhere, she wove it all together so well. It was colorful yet short and to the point. She can turn a phrase. You're fortunate that I'm out of the editing business — I'd be hiring her away from you. So thank you again to you and Melissa for all you have done to help us recruit even more volunteers. Know that your work will help brighten the hospital stays of thousands of our kids when they need it the most.”
