"I want you to know how much I appreciate all you have done for my family...I thank you for going above and beyond to help me and (my daughter). I value your advice and expertise. I admire your style and grace. You have helped me achieve what I once thought was impossible, the freedom...to raise my daughter as a strong, confident and a caring woman. We will be better and happier people now and we can live a life to be proud of..." A.L.
