Gary,

Every morning I sit in my rocker and rock gently as I start my day with a cup of coffee. It is so very beautiful, and everyone who comes in our home winds up sitting there and going into a kind of trance.

I'm sorry I haven't written sooner to thank you for creating it for our home, but I wanted to get some photographs taken of it to show you the space it occupies in our lives.

I love not only how it looks, how it feels to sit in it and lean my head back, but also the touch of it under my palms. The wood is silky and luscious to the touch and the motion takes me back to a very old place I don't even consciously remember.

It is my favorite piece of furniture in the whole house; thank you for sharing your art with us. I can tell it was made with love.

Peace,
R.

Hi Gary

My husband bought a beautiful mesquite rocker from you — I'll have to look on the bottom to remember when. We have enjoyed it in our living room and it is indeed comfortable as well as a thing of beauty. We still marvel at the mesquite, very precious.

Sincerely,
M.

Gary: I've been meaning to send a note. Yes, it's here and arrived in perfect condition! I've rocked in it, napped in it and even played my ukelele in it. Comfortable and beautiful!! I'm looking forward to many years of enjoyment. Thanks for your craftsmanship!

Gary —

The rocker arrived yesterday, and it is beautiful . . .

My wife is so pleased, she would now like a Harris stool to go with it in cherry. Would you place an order for us? . . .

Thanks,

Hi Gary,

Yes, DB Schenker and I arranged for delivery today and it actually arrived about an hour ago. I noted a couple of punctures on the carton, but they were rather superficial and I was confident the furniture was not damaged. Actually the chair is in perfect condition. I noticed you left off the strips after all (if you recall my agonized e-mail about that). Since this chair will always be on a rug, I imagine it will be just fine.

Well, now as to what I'd really like to say: Even though I had such high expectations from my previous experience, I was just as excited to see our new rocking chair as I was the first time. The mesquite is gorgeous! My husband is thrilled with his birthday present and can now rock and read just as comfortably in New York as he can in San Francisco. Thanks again and again for such fine work.

Best regards,
L.

Good Afternoon Mr. Weeks,

The rocker arrived in perfect condition this afternoon. It is a handsome thing! Thank you very much.

It has been a pleasure doing business with you sir and I wish you much success in this new year.

Gary,

So sorry for the delay in writing you back, we got swamped by people over the holidays wanting to admire our daughter (and our rocking chair). It did arrive (on her birthday), and it is beautiful. It lives up to the expectations set by your marketing. And, it even puts a baby to sleep.

Happy New Year!

Dear Gary,

I write to report that the delivery of my sister's new rocking chair was timely and that when unveiled on Christmas day was a great success! All marveled at the joinery, material, finish and ergonomics and greatly approved of the future heirloom. My nephew has visited his mom since Christmas just to pet the chair. Congratulations on the creation of this beautiful all-American work of art.

Yours,
R.

Hi Gary,

The chair is finally here — arriving only minutes before my wife got home from work! She is very surprised, and we are both very happy with the chair. It's the perfect combination of comfort and beauty. We're looking forward to spending a lot of wide-awake nights, rocking our (pending in June) baby to sleep!

Thanks for your careful attention and help through the ordering and shipping process.

Happy holidays to your and your family!

Best regards,
R. and K.
