you caught a lot of things we never would have seen, like [our nephew] sitting on the lawn, eating out of a McDonald's bag before the reception began. Thank you so much for being

"I want to thank you for the wonderful tape that you made with my parents. You did a great job of interviewing them and getting them to talk about their lives. I found out a great deal about them that I didn't know and it was interesting to hear them talk about their family life when they were younger.
The editing is terrific and the pictures definitely support
what they are discussing. I am not sure where you got all the pictures, but they are excellent. You are obviously quite professional at putting together interviews. The tape is a
real treasure for out family and something we can enjoy for many years." |

"Not sure if you remember me but you recently copied some VHS dance recital tapes for me and one PAL tape from England onto DVD. . . I want to thank you
for editing out the black parts of the dance recitals. Your receipt included a check because after taking out the black parts, you were able to get it on fewer DVD's. I will not
be cashing your check. Let's call that your editing fee. I appreciate your help and your honesty. Thanks again for you work." M.A.M., Connecticut
