Hi Christie! I’ve been meaning to follow up to thank you for all of your patience and kindness, as well as to thank you for the beautiful plaque you created for me in memory of my wife. The plaque arrived intact shortly before I left for Florida to spend some time with my family. I pleasantly surprised my Son and his girlfriend, as well as my Sister and brother-in-law with a big “reveal” of her plaque, and they were all so very pleased and touched not only by the meaning of the plaque, but also its beauty. I knew my Sister would particularly like it, because I was planning on designing one for her as well. But she beat me to it, and asked me for all of the particulars. You’ll be hearing from her soon.Again, thank you so very much !!!! Mike

I put it up in my living room for the moment over my most memorable government plaques. It certainly has a distinctive look. Again thank you for the excellent workmanship and service.
