I think that Sandy Todd is really knowledgeable, has helped me a great deal, and helped my granddaughter a great deal. There's so many issues that we have with our situation that I thank God that we're able to see Sandy. I think if you had more people like her, the world would be a better place. I don't know how you could ask for a better, more qualified person than what she is because she's always well-skilled, has great advice, and I'd trust anything she has to say. I don't know. I would be grateful to have somebody like that work for me. So God bless her. You should appreciate her. Bye-bye.

Yeah, Sandy is a great counselor. My granddaughter's grown a whole lot, so I ... I thank God for Sandy. And you know, if there was more people in the world that was as educated and experienced as she were, you know, I'd tell all of my friends and family members, you know, how much she's done for us, and, you know, I feel blessed because of Sandy. So, you know, if everybody had people in their life like that and employees like that, you know, we would definitely be in a better place. So, I definitely give her props. She's got my vote. Thanks for reaching out.
