“I wanted to thank you for a wonderful and truly inspiring Keynote Address that you provided at our Consumer Graduation this year.  It was amazingly fluid and so powerful.  Your message to the graduates to create their own blessings and to be in control of their decisions and destiny was such an important one for them to hear.  We greatly appreciated your willingness to provide the address, and it took on particular meaning since you worked at Abilities, Inc. with Dr. Viscardi and now after these many years, have come back to serve on our Board.”

“I know that, like myself, those in attendance found your talk to be extremely inspirational. The many obstacles both structural and professional, which you had to endure during your quest towards fulfilling the goals you had set for yourself, is testimony to your determination to, "never give up."
Your accomplishments in life, your work, and most importantly, your family, speaks volumes of your positive outlook and your desire to never let, "the cards you have been dealt," stand in the way of reaching your goals and aspirations.
A common theme throughout your talk, of never settling but always striving to do better, to improve ourselves, and to live life to its fullest extent are words we can all live by.
Thank you again for making our meeting a huge success.”
