Mrs. Wright Harris,Thank you for all of the support you offer, it is invaluable. Every time I attend one of your sessions, I learn something. It gives me the impetus to accept an assignment I have never done, and the confidence to believe I can because I have the tools. I share your information with anyone interested because I know they will be in good hands.
I wish you continued health and happiness and look forward to more of your courses in the future.
