"Take a deep, well-deserved bow for your starring role in the formal
inauguration of the Broward Center for the Performing Arts. Without
you in the "cast", the Foundation's March 3rd opening could not have
been the elegant and memorable occasion that it was. To say you came
through when called upon is possibly the understatement of the century...it
was a first-class performance on your part -- handled as only a professional
can. We weren't worried about you for one minute. Bravo!"
