          Gary,

          I just wanted you to know that my family, friends and I have derived great pleasure and satisfaction from the beauty and fine craftsmanship of the table and chairs that you made for us.  Dealing with you was an enjoyable and memorable experience.  I proudly refer people who ask about your work to my friend in Texas who made them for me.

          S.
