Just a quick note of appreciation to say a huge thanks to you and Terry for coming to our school, on Friday. The kids’ parents have been sending and commenting hard on Facebook saying how much they enjoyed it, and how much the kids have been watching Terry’s videos on You Tube. You are truly an inspiration….Keep it up !
Take Care
