sentiments from adler aphasia center volunteers<br />
Dear Mr. & Mrs. A.- You realized help was needed for aphasia and you found the solution, the <strong>Adler</strong><br />
<strong>Aphasia</strong> <strong>Center</strong>. Thank you for making a difference in so many people’s lives. I can’t thank you<br />
enough for letting me volunteer and being part of this wonderful family center.<br />
Martha DeYoung<br />
I was sad when I retired from teaching until I found <strong>Adler</strong>. I could still teach and unlike with<br />
teenagers was appreciated, valued and all my students tried hard and wanted to do well! I’ve found<br />
a special kind of courage here. The theme song should be “We shall overcome”. Jean Decker<br />

“I can’t thank Mike and Elaine enough for creating the magnificent <strong>Adler</strong> <strong>Aphasia</strong> <strong>Center</strong> for people<br />
with aphasia over ten years ago and inviting me to become a volunteer there. It was one of the<br />
best decisions that I have made in my life. The staff, members, caregivers, and volunteers have all<br />
become “my extended family.” It is a place filled with learning and laughter. I continue to receive<br />
much gratification and reward whenever I am there helping others. Mike and Elaine are extremely<br />
generous, thoughtful and compassionate people who treat everyone with dignity, kindness and<br />
love.” Linda Gould<br />
I am so thankful and blessed for growing up with <strong>Adler</strong>. <strong>Adler</strong> has become a second family to me and<br />
has greatly influenced my aspirations of becoming a speech-language pathologist.<br />

Wishing you and your family a happy, healthy year ahead. Only one quote stays forever in my mind.<br />
A member said,.......”I am so happy when I am here.” Guess that is what this is all about.<br />
Hope to see you soon. Best, Janet Schreibman<br />
Dear Elaine & Mike, Thank you for living your dream. So many people have better lives because of<br />
you. Much love, Joanne, Ethan & Sue Snyder<br />
