Copied and Pasted from other thread (question follows below):

In opening the mail a few weeks back, we received a $10,000 check made payable to the university with a simple message: “Use it where you need it most following the hurricane.” Sent from a California citizen, we were touched and wrote a letter of thanks sharing information about Southern Miss. But there’s more. Two weeks later, another check from the same individuals, this time for $100,000, arrived in the mail. Again, the message was to the point: “You have lost so much – use this to help the university.”

This man and his wife are not alumni and not Mississippi residents; they simply wanted to help our university. We have sent our heartfelt thanks to them and continue to be touched by the generosity and spirit we have seen in days following Katrina.

Does anyone know who sent this generous donation? I seem to recall several letters to the editor from a former resident of CA, who is now resident of Hattiesburg. Is this the same individual?
