I have had the distinct pleasure and honor of watching you flower into an intuitive, clever, resourceful, and thoughtful business person over the past year or so. If this blog was not rated general audience material, I would swear up and down about how frigging proud I am of you 'till every reader that happened by had burning ears and burning eyes, or at least blushed a little

I am just so very proud of what you have accomplished, the amazing woman you have become, and the astounding strength, tenacity, and compassion you have shown through trying professional and personal times.

Oh, and I can't stop myself… toldja so! Knew you could do it. And as soon as YOU knew you could do it, you DID it!!!

Anyway, you are a beautiful, incredible, talented creature, and I cannot think of any person, at any professional level or vocation, whom would not benefit immensely from getting to know you, reading and heeding what you have to say, and learning from your experiences.

Thank you for letting me be one of them.

Your completely unstoppable bulldozer of a friend for life,

Ron
