Hello Weeks family,

Today is Sept 28 Friday. My rocker arrived in perfect condition yesterday. It is beautiful — just a work of art.

Thank you so much,

Hello Gary (and company!),

My curly cherry rocker, footstool, and side table arrived a bit earlier and we just finished unpacking everything. Every piece is in perfect condition (kudos to your packers!) and — just simply — beautiful.

I've started saving for a dining table and chairs!

I love having such amazing functional, comfortable art — thank you, thank you, thank you!

Hello Gary,

I just landed in NYC from London to your kind note. Thank you. L. and I enjoyed meeting you and Leslie and our time together with Austin. I wish you could have met my older son Z. who toured the workshop at the start of the process. As a new college freshman pursuing engineering management, he was inspired by the intersection of form and function as well as the aspect of a family business all present in your company. L. has often mentioned the machines he saw which is notable as he is a deep thinker who has an economy with words.

I am thrilled with the chair and it is truly worthy of the occasion which I failed to mention — my 26th wedding anniversary. I have included three pictures below. Austin has a gift for selecting and bringing out the figure and grain and I found the chair to be as comfortable as it is beautiful. It is a fine compliment to my historic desk and a great conversation piece for our new home. I could not be more pleased and it is especially meaningful that this comes from a family in our town. Thanks one and all for all they did to make this heirloom a welcome addition to our family.

PS – please feel to post these photos per your newsletter in the "Patron Photo" section and enter us in the drawing. It was a pleasure to read of your company and milestone. Keep the letters coming. Again, thanks!

When we found out Ramona was pregnant in 2005, I went on a hunt for the perfect rocking chair. I found Gary Weeks and Company Furnituremakers.

They made the audacious claim that if it wasn't the most comfortable chair you had ever sat in, send it back, they'd pay shipping both ways.

When the crate finally arrived, it, the crate, was built better than most furniture I've ever seen. The chair itself is beyond compare. It's elegant, and solid. It rocks beautifully. And I spent many a night rocking my daughter to sleep in it.

And yes, it's the most comfortable chair I've ever sat in. And it's one of the most beautiful things I own. It will be in the family for generations.

I DID get the chair on Wednesday. It arrived in perfect shape. It's beautiful and I am enjoying rocking. The felt strips on the rockers were unexpected and are a very nice touch.

You asked me earlier where I heard about the Weeks rocker. I have vague memories of having seen it in the Whole Earth Catalog. Whether my memory is correct or not, that probably gives you a good idea of my age.

Thanks again for the beautiful chair and for your excellent service.

Best wishes,

Dear Gary,

The chair is absolutely gorgeous piece of art work. I am more than happy with the finished chair.

I decided to give it to my husband early for his birthday instead of trying to hide it. Besides he may have gotten a few too many laughs for getting a rocking chair on his 70th Birthday. At any rate he does love it and it looks very nice in our living room. I especially like that the rockers are lined with protective strip so it doesn't mar the hardwood floors.

It was a pleasure working with you, thanks again.

I texted you when we arrived home with our beautiful treasure, which arrived without movement or a scratch. (I don't know if you received the text.) We have sent pictures to many persons; however, the pictures don't at all do justice to your beautiful work. I am so thankful you took the time to secure it in our very dirty truck and that we didn't wait to bring it home. It is such a beautiful compliment to the other chair and our beautiful new table. We admire your work and dedication to the art you produce.
Thank you so much . . . it is always a pleasure visiting with you.

Dear Gary,

Just received pictures of the rocker from K. and M., and we could not be more delighted. It is simply beautiful. Something we will treasure.

Again thank you so much for your kind consideration.
