“ What can we say but WOW and thank you! You have gone above & beyond your “job” to make this special. Thanks for making us look good! ”

“ Many, many thanks for organizing such a lovely evening . . . I can't imagine doing this without your creative, thoughtful touches. I really appreciate you. ”

“ Most important of all was the number of people who used the word "inspirational" to describe the evening and program. I think it was the best you've done. So to keep improving after 13 years is saying something.
Thanks and congratulations. ”

“ Congrats to you and team for staging a terrific event. I’ve told a number of people that unlike so many other affairs, this one really engaged the audience by introducing them to each of the honorees. It allowed everyone in the audience to get to know them and see them in action. Well done. ”

“ Your long months of preparation certainly was evident at every moment of the evening. I am humbled and grateful to have been a part of this celebration. You are an amazing team and I hope you will pass on my thanks to so many others who brought absolute perfection to the Founders Dinner. ”

“ I think you’ve done an amazing job of establishing a high bar for our special events. You brought a standard of professionalism and creativity that will be difficult to live up to. ”

“ You know more about running great events than most people know about anything! ”

“ From planning through execution you were wonderful – and fun – to work with. The event might have happened with you; but it never would have had the smooth professional feel that you provided. ”

“ ...you can be so proud that you have won over the hearts of so many of us alumni and it is a tribute to your fine work and dedication. ”

“ If I had to decide the best way to describe what I know of you vis a vis Founders’ Dinner, I would be hard pressed to choose between master organizer and incredible juggler. You made the complexity seem seamless. ”

“ ...wanted to express our deepest gratitude for your vision, leadership and creativity with Family Weekend. You are always so great to work with – always believing and carefully guiding! ”

“ Richard is a consummate professional who is both forward thinking and strategic! His special ability to execute flawlessly while providing an amazing attendee experience sets the highest standard! It is a privilege to work with Richard and his guidance has been instrumental in our success! ”

“ You saw the two thank you’s I just sent to some of the staff who helped last night. The biggest thank you goes to you. I consider us incredibly lucky to have been able to benefit from your depth of experience and expertise. The evening was seamless and flawless. ”

“ Great impresarios rarely receive recognition. They are like the lights in a room. We take for granted the darkness will be swept away and all will be well. We do not dwell on what it took to illuminate our lives. Your work is such. ”

“ Richard is organized, delightful to be around, and made our event run flawlessly. He seems to delight in the work and is effortlessly attentive to even the smallest details. We loved working with him and look forward to his helping us with future events. ”
