Testimonials

"Darryl was great - particularly with our Crossroads (rehabilitation program) participants. He took pictures, spoke with them and was very encouraging both in their private reception and in the overall keynote speech. He got a standing ovation from our dinner guests and was very gracious - giving time for photos and general conversation - throughout the night. He was also very understanding of our tight schedule. He was a good fit for this year's event (particularly with our 'transform' theme) and we believe he contributed to a strong start for us in this arena. As the organizers, we appreciated how low-key he was and just generally pleasant to be around and work with."

"Thank you for coming to Sarasota and sharing your story with my guests. You were really able to connect with them on several levels. They expressed their thanks by giving you an arousing standing ovation so well deserved."
