Thanks to Lee Vanterpool

Dear Source:
My name is Terrance Fleming, a native son. Born on the wonderful island of St. Thomas. I was just surfing the net and came across your profile on Lee Vanterpool. I worked with Mr. Vanterpool as a TV news reporter at then WBNB TV Channel 10 (CBS). It is wonderful to see that this positive island son continues to shine. I'm also glad to acknowledge your media mediums value with regards to keeping those who were so important to shaping the lives and changing the outlook on life for so much of us so many years ago. Continue to shine the light on our heros of the past. Lee Vanterpool, was the reason I went on to study Broadcast Journalism, and he gave me, the son of Felix Fleming (Sunshine Theatre Co.) an opportunity to come home and live out a dream as a local TV news reporter. Thanks Lee!!
