Congratulations on this milestone achievement Larry. You have been a big part of my life for well over twenty years not only as my TEC Chair, but as an exceptional board member on a number of the insurance companies I have run over that time, in addition to being both a mentor and a friend. I appreciate that you have always been genuinely interested in not only my business and career but in my personal life as well and thank you for helping me through numerous challenges in both over the years. You have been the steady hand on my shoulder, always there when needed, reminding me what is important and helping guide me in making the right choices. I appreciate all you have done for me over the decades Larry – you have made a significant positive difference for me and many others along the way – and I want to congratulate you on your remarkable journey with TEC.

With sincere appreciation and gratitude.
