The letter accompanying the gift reads: "To the Anaheim Lutheran hospital and Its Entire Staff: "I've never seen anything like it. "I was in need of a serious operation and because of my age, I am past 60, I hesitated. Then, too, I had a certain timidity about entering the hospital, and reports from my friends hadn't helped. But as you know, I did enter yours and it has been a wonderful experience. From the kitchen to the administrative office, you people have been wonderful. You all seem to interpret every need and desire of the patient. It seems that God in His wisdom has helped you in your organization that you can so ably help others. "As this institution is so democratically administered and is so typically American in principle, it gives me great pleasure to present you with this United States flag. It honors you, but you also honor it; because you all certainly are an integral part of it. "Mrs. Lee joins me in extending our most grateful appreciation and every wish for your continued success. Gratefully, MR. AND MRS. ROY L. LEE."
