Hi Dr. Laura, 

I am one of your original listeners. Back in the winter of 1974 and the spring of 1975, I was a young airman in the United States Air Force just returning from the Vietnam Conflict. I was assigned to Seymour Johnson AF base in North Carolina and would leave the base at night and drive home to Jacksonville, Florida. The only radio station I could get in the early hours of the morning was the station you were on so I listened to you to keep me occupied throughout the night. 

I have continued to listen to you over the years and my wife is also a big fan of yours as she listens every day on her drive home from work. But for me, I have listened to you for 40 years when I was a youngster and you were in your 20s. So, Dr. Laura, thank you so much for being part of my life for all these years and also my wife's life for the past 16 years. You are an inspiration to us and you have touched so my lives.  You are an incredible person, wife and mother. I am my kids' father and my wife's boyfriend.  THANK YOU for 40 years of outstanding service to the people who love and care about you! 

Keith
