Your piece in today's Dallas Morning News Healthy Living Section page 13, was beautifully written. I pay attention to well written and well conceptualized pieces, and this one is very good work. I look forward to your future work.—Phil Mendershausen
As a man, I started not to read your story in today's paper about you and your friend Ruth. Even though I like stories like this, it would be akin to a chick flick. I read anyway and was touched. Very, very good story and it gave me pause to reconsider the many good blessings I have, especially good friends. —Steve Nance
It was nice to read [your] clean, well written, interesting and thought provoking article. Thank you. —Donna Van Eerden
