Retirees on the Mark

Sharon Dirlam’s coverage of the American Assn. of Retired Persons Travel Service (Dec. 23) far surpassed my expectations, not only in the breadth of coverage but in the depth and accuracy. Both Bob Dunn and I are used to finding that our statements appear in different contexts or altered slightly enough to change the original sense.

Her reporting, however, stayed on the mark throughout, covering the spectrum of facts and suggestions in a directed and interesting manner, and concluded with the best advice that any traveler could have. I thank her for a professional job. ROBERT J. FORBES manager, travel program AARP, Washington
