To the Editor:

Thank you for publishing Valerie Sonnenthal’s nice article on our 70 years of marriage (Aug. 27, “Great Island Couples: The Plotzes celebrate 70 years”).

We now spend over four months each year on Martha’s Vineyard, and want to express our gratitude to the people who live here all year and keep the Island idyllic. They are remarkably and almost uniformly nice and hard-working. It is a pleasure to have the privilege of living among them.

Lucille and Charles Plotz
