I want to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for the wonderful party that was given to me last Saturday evening. I can truly say this event, I will never forget. It made me feel as though I was part of the "Shir Chadash Family" and that feeling is so important to me. Hope to be here another 20 years. Thanks for letting me "Sparkle".
Sincerely,
Danielle Spadoni
