Testimonial from participant
Hello,
I just want to thank you and your husband Luis for thinking of me for such a great event. I had lots of fun. The painting helped me step out of my "Box". I learned a lot about you guys, it was so great to see you guys out of your usual role. I truly enjoyed seeing the constant smile on both you and Jayleen's face. Thanks for allowing me to be myself. Being the youngest in the group was a little scary, but in the end, age was truly nothing but a number. I really appreciate that, it means a lot to me.
Once again thank you for such a great experience.
Like your husband promised, that night will be a story I tell a million times to my grandkids.
