[An open letter to the President of the United States upon his visit to his parent’s home in Kennebunkport]

Welcome, Mr. President.

The community is happy to welcome you and your family for a personal family celebration. We wish you all well and hope you will enjoy your time with all of your family.

We trust the community and media will recognize this visit as a family affair and show respect and dignity. Some in our community have dissenting political views, however, we trust that all will show restraint and allow you and your family a happy celebration and a good visit with family.

Robert J Lothrop, Sr.

Kennebunk
