In short, this has been a terrific decision to work with you, and I cannot imagine going through this process without you. To say that you have a wealth of information regarding boarding schools would be an understatement. Boarding schools are literally part of your family’s fiber, and it is such an asset to be able to work with you.
First of all, I wanted to thank you for being always so patient, attentive, responsive, available and TRULY genuinely kind, yet always challenging.
