Recently I have had top deal with a very difficult task in my family. I am in the process of admitting my mother (who has Alzheimer's) into an assisted living facility here in Delaware.

When I initially brought her here from Colorado a few weeks ago, she visited the Dojang to watch my class. When she came in, Mr. Smith quickly sat next to her and began talking and making her feel very welcomed. both Mr. Mabrouk and Mr. Davis were very cordial to her as well. She was truly touched by her experience that evening.

I had told her prior to her visit that Karate was more than just exercise, I went on to say, it is the people, the people here are like family. I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to your staff for making my mother feel like part of the family, especially at this difficult time.

Sincerely,

Mark Atkins
