"It was a wonderful experience for me to watch the training and listen and learn from you and your colleagues.
It's clear to me that to have the best of the best that you need to learn from the best of the best, and that was evident in abundance from start to finish.
Chris and I were constantly impressed by what we saw -- the knowledge, the professionalism, the attention to detail. I'm glad to have seen it all first-hand.
