Letter on Wayne State University Board of Governors letterhead, dated APril 12, 1981 and addressed to Jerry Wurf, President, AFSCME. "Dear Jerry, A late note to say how impressed I was with your press conference when you were in Detroit for the Michigan AFL-CIO COPE dinner. I have also read your speech.
You are saying such important things so well. Your spirit and guts inspire and you make one feel that as you say if we will fall in together we can turn this country around. Even if it takes awhile.
You're a true leader.
Best,
Millie Jeffrey"
