Dear Kitty,
We are all still floating since your appearance at our ENDOW Gala in Denver! This week I have had more positive calls and emails than I can possibly handle.
Our annual event is meticulously planned for and provides the capstone for the whole year. When we learned at the eleventh hour our original speaker couldn’t make it, I recalled a brief meeting with you a while back and how inspired I was. I picked up the phone and we talked excitedly like old friends. Happily for us, you cleared your calendar and graciously stepped in to save the day. Upon walking onstage you jokingly called yourself the “consolation prize” but truly, you were anything but. Your presentation was unsurpassable and our Gala was the most successful in our history.
The humor, warmth, and love that came through in your talk had all 500 people in the room riveted. And the melody of your final song – a tribute to John Paul II – is still echoing in our hearts.
Thank you, Kitty! May God bless your ministry as you blessed us Saturday night.
Terry Polakovic, ENDOW
