October 27, 1998 Dear Mr. and Mrs. Johannessen: Thank you for your recent letter regarding your daughter's most unfortunate encounter with a gun. The positive response she has received from other youth about her experience is very encouraging. I agree that education is the key to prevention of gun violence, and I applaud your on-going commitment to extend your message to young people throughout the nation. Best of luck with The Shanelle Foundation for the prevention of unintentional shootings. Sincerely, Tom Daly Mayor City Hall 200 South Anaheim Boulevard, Aneheim California 92805 (714) 765-5247 FAX (714) 765-5164 Back to Endorsements Index Page
