Dear Editor:
I hope you will allow me to use this venue to share my thoughts with the former Indian employees.
I’m Frank O’Connell’s former wife, so listen up, guys.
When Frank was offered a job with Indian, all of us who knew him were as thrilled as he was. This was as close as a man could come to a dream job, and from that moment on, he lived and breathed Indian. I’m so proud of what he and you have been able to accomplish, in a relatively short time, to get this venerable old machine rumbling again. I am heartbroken, for him and for you, by this latest turn of events.
I don’t know any of the Indian management team, so I can’t offer any opinion on their style or their decisions. I can tell you that Frank is a supremely fair, kind, generous and compassionate person. In my conversations with him or his wife, Barbara, their first concern, their anguish, is always over the hit the employees have taken.
There may be many people to blame for what’s happened. I want you to know who you shouldn’t blame.
In hopes that we’ll hear the roar again soon, thank you.
