Dear Kind Sweet Sir,

Have got to let you know how much I appreciate the work that you do. My rocker is perhaps the most elegant rocker in all of creation. You truly do amazing work that will be cherished in our family for a long time to come. Thank you for my main seat. I now understand what I. has been making such a fuss about for so long.

With such appreciation,

The New M.H.

Gary,

Yes, it was delivered yesterday afternoon by Motor Cargo. Everything went fine as far as delivery and condition.

The rocker is wonderful, truly a work of art. And the minute I sat in it, it was comfortable, a perfect fit with everything supported, and a lovely rock. I was delighted with the curve in the arms, the way you can put your elbows off the end of the arm and not have any pressure on the elbow to make your arms "go to sleep". (By design or accident, a great feature).

My husband was also very pleased with the beauty and comfort of the rocker. I suspect we will have to take turns with "my" rocker.

Thank you so much!

Thanks very much Gary!

Kudos to you and your team, it is a beautiful chair and a pleasure to sit in. I read the morning paper in it today — what a great way to start the day. My wife likes it a lot as well, so we are over the highest hurdle. :-)

The grain patterns are very nice. I especially like the splats and the rockers. They have that subtle reflective, wavy pattern that I like so much. The finish is superb as well — a pleasure to touch and look at.

Again, thank you for the wonderful chair. The H. Family appreciates it very much!

Dear Gary,

My husband, D., surprised me for my birthday (6/21), with one of your maple rockers. This is one of the most beautiful things I've seen (of course, besides my daughter, D.)! It is the most comfortable chair in our home. I move it from my daughter's room to our family room, on a regular basis so that visitors get a good look at it. Thank you for making such a beautiful, functioning piece of art.

Sincerely,
K.B.

Gary,

I got my cherry rocker about 2 weeks ago. I knew it would be nice, but when I unwrapped it I was amazed at the perfection of it! The joinery, finish, and comfort are more than I could have hoped for. I've never seen a piece of furniture of this quality.

Thank you for your craftsmanship and outstanding rocking chair!

Gary,

We are VERY happy with both the rockers and the table. They look great together and we plan to spend many hours enjoying them on our new screened porch. Thanks so much for having done such an outstanding job on their looks, workmanship and comfort.

Gary,

I am more than happy with both the chairs and the delivery. I had a party to welcome these new pieces, and one of my friends swore that the rocker was the most comfortable chair in which she had ever sat - I think she's right! The rocker has become my favourite place to sip my morning coffee and read the newspaper.

Thanks for your good work and artistry.

Dear Gary,

We have received our much anticipated rocker and are very pleased. Though the cardboard of the crate had a large tear in one corner, the rocker arrived in perfect condition. It has also come before our son, whose due date was yesterday. Thank you, again, for making us a priority with the rather short notice we gave you. C. is delighted to have her rocker in place — in the small room we have for the nursery — and is ready for this baby to be born.

I pray that God continues to bless you and your family, and everyone who works at Gary Weeks Furniture. Your craftsmanship testifies to the depth of your devotion to your work.

Sincerely,
F.B

Hi Gary,

My wife and I with her friends from San Antonio made a trip to the Fredericksburg area and visited your facility in early 2002 when you took the time to show us your shop and new home as it was under construction (We are from Grosse Ile, Michigan), since that time I have seen many 'look alike' furniture pieces in several area art fairs for twice as much money, no where near the quality and comfort, and without the 'art' of your designs. We still have a place for a few The Wilson Chairs and a The Terrell Side Table, at some opportune time we will fill that void.

Sincerely,
R. and S.W.

Gary:

Briefly, the rocker arrived in perfect condition, and the delivery man from Overnite was perhaps the most pleasant and courteous I've come across in years. The crate was a pleasure in itself to "unwrap."

My wife was thrilled with the rocker, and used it last evening to rock (of course!) the baby to sleep. Did I mention that R. and I have a 7 month, and a 23 month old sons? More to follow, we hope. I often comment to those professionals whom I refer business, that when they look good, I look good. Let's say that your rocker made me look really good!

To conclude, the rocker is magnificent.

Best regards,
D.M.
