"Thank you again for the wonderful job you did as host of the On Board to Board
function earlier this month - you were truly inspiring in your words of wisdom and
I think the audience really appreciate your honest and open approach. I had a few
women sitting near me who said they had been to many of the On Board to Board functions
before who said you were one of the best speakers they had ever had!"
