Quotes from Past Participants
Here's what people have said about my presentations:
- "Your talk was spectacular. I've been to some Sears talks before, but none of them hold a candle to yours. "
- "Many thanks for, once again, presenting an outstanding program on Sears Homes of Chicagoland. It’s obvious you are well versed on the subject and that you have a passion to share your love of these homes."
- "I just wanted to say thank you once again for your willingness to come and share your knowledge and passion with us. The evaluations were excellent - they all loved it! They wrote how professional you are, and what a good presentation you gave. They loved the walking tour and learning what to look for to determine a Sears Home... they loved it all."
