``Thank you for all the time and professional attention you provide on behalf of our Westport residents. We truly appreciate your ability to follow each energy application to its end keeping us, as well as the client informed. It is a pleasure to have a colleague who acts with such respect and kindness in spite of difficult circumstances and tight deadlines. We are grateful for the experience and extra effort extended to our Westport residents in need.``

``I handle energy assistance for Kaufman Fuel and I am writing this e-mail to make you aware Dee Forman is a knowledgeable, experienced and compassionate person to work with and is much appreciated. I speak to her many times during the energy season while working with my own customers, and she is always readily available to assist me. Her level of professionalism is valued and in turn helps me provide a higher quality of service to our customer.``

``I'm so thankful for the outstanding assistance that was bestowed on me by Miss Danielle Forman and Miss Deborah Williams at Alliance. They went above and beyond their call of duty, not only assisting me in an urgent and efficient fashion, but demonstrating an insurmountable amount of humanity and kindness while handling my case. Having just dealt with serious health issues on top of losing my water, electricity and heat, I was so touched and inspired to see that there are such great individuals who aren't just doing the bare minimum to get their job done; but on the contrary, truly care about people. I can't stress enough what that meant to me. For their actions and kindness I will never forget these ladies as long as I live.``
– O.H., Bridgeport, CT
``Dear Danielle, just a few words to express my thanks for your courtesy and kind words in helping me with my application for the energy program. Your positive attitude when talking to me was outstanding. Having recently had a heart attack, I was totally in awe of your positive tone when you shared with me that you had also suffered health problems. You gave me such an upbeat feeling that it got me through the day and week. My heart-felt thanks for your kindness! It sure brightened my life and helped me close one of the many issues I am dealing with now.``
