“This past Thanksgiving as we were taking turns talking about what we were thankful for, one of the things I said was you. Jill, I would never be where I am right now without you. I’m serious. You worked so hard for me, had a sincere concern every step of the way and couldn’t have done a more perfect job. To consider someone a friend after our meeting speaks volumes to me. So, since I’ve never told you, I thought I’d let you know.”
