Dear Mr. Ashcroft,

I read the Sunday Newspaper today and was very sadden to learn about two of 
our nations heroes,        and       .  It appears our Government is 
not willing to assist and support        partner,      .        gave her 
life for our country and        will suffer loneliness and despair for 
the rest of her life because of the terrorist attacks.         and       
built their home together and it would be an injustice for        to lose it 
because we did not help her.  The people of this country gave money to relief 
funds for people like       .  We cannot take away her suffering, but we can 
help save her home.  Please don't turn a deaf ear to our heroes.

Help        get some financial assistance so that she can keep her home.



Thank you,



Individual Comment

Frederick, MD
