Here's the thank you letter I sent after our most enjoyable visit:
Dear Tony (the friendly host),
It was an excellent time up in Springfield--enjoyed to all extent by us.
A true gentleman to behold, from when you generously picked us up at the train station, to fielding our questions, to your historic, yet modern accommodations. Our only regret is that we could not spend more time at the Pasfield House.
The personal introduction to President Lincoln was unforgettable; and the Midwest kindness of all we met will not soon be forgotten.
God bless, and hope to see you down the road.
Warmest Regards
