To the staff of the Plasma Center, I would like to start by saying thank you to each and every employee for making the past three years enjoyable in a professional, efficient and courteous environment. As a donor since 1993, I have been more than satisfied with every aspect of your operation, which allows myself and others to contribute what we can to community service, all the while being serviced by diligent, but relaxed, workers. Everyone at the Plasma Center, from those behind the front counter to the phlebotomists to the supervisors, have made great efforts to insure that each donor feels hy- gienically safe, as well as keeping the atmosphere light. Like most, I started coming to the Plas ma Center for monetary reasons, but I soon de veloped acquaintances that appealed to me al most as much as the original need for money, enabling me to look forward to each donation, not only for my wallet’s sake but also to see my friends. Like I commented to someone recently, talking to people at the Plasma Center was like getting mail from a far-off friend that you don’t get to do much with, but who you can talk to as often as you write. For those acquaintances and for your continual services. I would like to thank all of those I’ve come to know and appreciate over the past three years - Emily, and Tracy, Heath, and Marty, Ada and Josie, etc... more I can’t remem ber or those who have gone on to better things. So, as I graduate from this great Univer sity, I bid you all a fond farewell and strong com mendations on such a successful blend of quali ty medical practice and friendly service. Thank you all and have a great summer. Thanks, C.F. 700 E. University Dr. 268-6050 4223 Wellborn Rd.
