Hello Gary,

We were sorry to have missed you during our visit, but want to tell you what a privilege it was to visit your workshop and to meet Austin. He was so pleasant and informative, and is very much a credit to his parents.

Your rocking chair has indeed found an appreciative home; we can't get over how comfortable — and how beautifully made — it is. It's got quite a few rocking miles on it already! Please, if you're ever up around our way . . . give us a call. We'd love to meet you!

Sincerely,
M. & R.

Good morning Gary,

Although it would have been a pleasure to visit with you again, rest assured that Austin and Becca took very good care of me. And your blessing is prescient about rocking in peace and good health since the second beautiful rocker ends S.'s and my animated competition for the first one.

Your artistic talent is exceeded only by your kindness. Thank you for both!

All best,
D.

Good morning Weeks Family,

Letting you know I received my rocker and am enjoying it very much. The delivery was sooner than expected and the chair is in perfect condition. I can't wait to have people in to enjoy my new chair. It's so nice to own such a beautifully crafted item.

Warm regards,
A.

I just broke down the box for recycling and am amazed at the construction! No wonder you have few problems with shipping!!! The storm was not as bad as predicted )(thank you God) and everything went well. It's so much work to shutter up and prepare inside and out but I went through Andrew and know what can happen.

Thanks again,
A.

Dear Mr. Weeks,

Your beautiful rocker arrived this afternoon and it was exactly as J. hoped it would be! It felt just the same as his memories of the feel and comfort of our son's Weeks' rocker. Your workmanship is exquisite. The finish has the feel of a fine silk satin. We are both so pleased and happy with our purchase. Many thank you's to you and your staff.

Sincerely,
P.

Hello,

Yes, my chair and footstool did arrive and I have admired them all weekend. It is extremely comfortable and fits me perfectly! It is the nicest rocker I have ever had the opportunity to sit in. And I like the color — from the photographs it looks like there are quite a variety of shades in the walnut. The walnut rocker on the website is a dark color while some of the email pictures were quite a bit paler with more of a yellow tint. So this one is very nice. I also like how there is almost an iridescent quality to the grain so it is quite an artistic and interesting chair to look at, as well as being so comfortable.

Thank you very much for the beautiful chair,
K.

Hello Gary and Leslie —

The rocker was delivered yesterday. The box was in reasonably good condition; the edge guards are brilliant. The delivery guy and I opened the box and removed the chair but did not unwrap it. Everything looked undamaged and I signed for it. I unwrapped it this morning and brought it inside. It is beautiful; an extraordinary piece of craftsmanship. I sat on it and immediately smiled because it is exactly as described on your website. Every surface is perfect. It is so comfortable. I was mostly unsure about there being only 4 slats in back but my concerns were unwarranted. I am looking forward to a rainy day to sit there by my window and read a good book, not that I won't be enjoying it on nice days, too.

Thank you,
M.

Gary,

Yes, we received the box decorated by a grand daughter (I presume) containing a remarkable creation . . .

We had you ship the cherry rocker to us in KS, as we plan to carry it with us as we travel next week to NY for a family gathering with J and S (the recipient). This will afford us the luxury of watching their response to its arrival in their lives in person.

And, that will be a delight!! The decorated box will be opened to a marvelous creation. Well conceived, the execution was flawless with a reverence for the material. The idea of the many days of sun and rain and snow in the growing of a tree(s) to produce the wood that your capable hands crafted into an instrument (a thing of beauty in itself) that S. will slowly introduce another being into the rhythms of existence in . . . let the music ebb and flow . . .

So, though I took a week to acknowledge my reaction to your work in hopes of getting the words right, it boils down to a simple Thank You. My admiration and respect to you and your son and your crew for sharing beauty with us and those who follow us.

Till then . . . may the gods grace you all with health and well being

Gary, Austin and others:

First above anything else, thank you so much from the M. family for providing what has to be the most comfortable and relaxing chair in our entire house. Not a day goes by where we don't admire its beauty or sit in its welcoming form. Upon its arrival, I claimed it as my primary chair in the house. Upon the birth of our daughter, mom has summarily displaced me from this fictitious right and uses it every day for nursing, comforting as well as some well deserved napping. Each person that puts eyes on it for the first time is really quite taken with its beauty and craftsmanship. We couldn't be more happy with having this chair in our house and as part of our family. It will truly last a lifetime and beyond and I couldn't be more proud to pass this piece along to the future M. generation.

Thanks again for providing such a wonderful piece. We absolutely love it.

Becca,

The chair arrived today and it is beautiful and comfortable. The stool is also great.
Gary did a great job picking out the walnut. It is more beautiful than I imagined and it matches perfectly.
You have also been very nice and helpful and I would like Gary to give you a hug from me and I'd also like you to give him a hug from me.
The driver who delivered it from MainFreight was very helpful and very nice so everything went very smoothly.
I look forward to relaxing comfortably in my new rocking chair. Oh, I am 6'3" and A. is 5'2" and it seems to fit both of us.

Thanks again for everything.

Dear Mr. Weeks.

We have had many good conversations in the past. Our chairs are still a blessing to our family and the Rocker is the highlight of the living room.

The Mesquite Rocker can sit in a cabin in the wilderness or in the White House and wouldn't be out of place in either!
It's a Gary Weeks!

Your friend,
