You are Welcome, Martha!

You are Welcome, Martha!
A couple of weeks ago I was in my hood on the Upper East Side of Manhattan enjoying a beautiful night with a friend and just as we were getting ready to leave, I bumped into Martha Stewart. Everyone that knows me, knows I am a complete Southern Bell and as soon as I saw her I threw my arms around her, gave her a big kiss on each cheek, and exclaimed that I am a total admirer of her. I think I startled her…actually, I KNOW I startled her, but she “went with it” as if we were old pals. The friend I was with made me realize that I probably went a little too far with my friendliness, and I’m sure I did. When I came into my office on the following Monday, I sent Martha a pair of Sunglasses and an Optical frame, along with a note apologizing for practically attacking her out of my shear excitement over meeting her. I never thought much about it again until today when a personal thank you note came in the mail from her.
We send our products to people all the time and rarely, if ever, do we receive a thank you. I can only imagine the letters and products that Martha receives, yet she made the effort to thank me, personally.
Martha…you have talent and character on every level. All the best to YOU and
Thank You, Martha!
Sincerely,
Cindy
