"I was so impressed with your talk to the graduates at Skyview High. I have to say I am embarrassed to admit that I did think the GED was maybe secondary to the "real diploma".

But after the evening was over, I realized that these kids really reached their goals and that is awesome. My nephew is one of those grads. My true hope is that if one graduate was affected by what you said and took it to heart, then we all would be blessed.

Thank God you were able to turn things around in your life and become what you have become. It was truly inspiring to listening to you. And thanks for your time last night.."

"I just wanted to take a moment this morning to say thanks for speaking to our students last night. You did a fantastic job! I had more positive comments about the speaker from parents and members of the audience following the ceremony last night than we have had since I've been here. Our board members and superintendent were also very impressed. Thanks again and we look forward to a repeat performance next Wednesday night at Skyview High School."
