Dear Judy and the TTN Team!

Our families most definitely had a terrific and memorable time at last night’s celebration! Your work behind the scenes planning and preparing, along with your direct involvement at our Fall Festival/Halloween Happening, significantly contributed to the success of the festivities. Thank you for arranging the inviting craft activities, preparing exciting and delicious candy bags, and helping to serve the pizza. The labor intensive dedication on the part of the TTN volunteers to setting up and delivering a beautiful Halloween costume boutique would not be the same without your efforts!

We are extremely grateful to partner with the Transition Network. It is due to this collaboration that, last night, we were able to offer an atmosphere of family fun and long lasting memories for our families during a time of crisis. In addition, we were able to create a space conducive for families to enjoy qualitative time as a family unit, paving the way for conversation and connectiveness.

Thank you so much for all of your efforts!!!

Warmly,
Lisa

Dear Sue and Members of the TTN Stitchers,

Thank you so much for the beautiful blankets which you have recently donated. They are perfect,
colorful and comforting. I know they will be most appreciated. We are receiving more and more
requests forblankets from hospice and nursing homes to veterans at the VA and in homeless shelters.
Since you have joined us, your chapter has been so consistent and involved. It is a pleasure to come and
visit when you meet at Sue’s. Your work is truly a team effort and we thank Sue for leading the way.
For all your dedication to us we are very grateful. I’m so proud of what we have accomplished together. It’s Women’s History Month and I think we are making history right here on Long Island!

Sincerely,
Ines Basso Glick

Dear Sue and TTN Stitchers,

Thank you so much for the beautiful warm items which you have donated. They are perfect and will be welcomed by all who receive them, especially during this very cold weather.
Your continued commitment to helping us bring comfort to those in need is much appreciated. You produce wonderful and meaningful items under
Sue’s leadership. We are, especially, grateful for your group blankets.
We know they take time and talent. I was luck y enough to see you putting one together on my last visit to your chapter.
We always have need for warm items. Your donation will provide
the means which will help bring comfort to those in shelters, hospitals, hospices, nursing homes and to veterans.
We appreciate your support and look forward to your continued participation in CARE TO KNIT.

MEMBER COMMENTS:

Thanks for all the great, creative things the Steering Committee is doing for TTN. You must be working really hard to put it all together. I’m impressed how I still feel connected to my TTN friends, even without being able to be together in person.

Thank you and the rest of your steering committee for coming up with such a variety of programs. I'm sure it's not an easy task.

I just wanted to thank the three of you for the excellent resilience program yesterday. It was apparent how much time and effort went into planning the event. Thank you so much for gathering us to share such a timely topic. The presentation and discussion were both wonderfully done and much appreciated. The entire program was a gift and I am very grateful!

Thank you so much for all your hard work and efforts. I really enjoyed yesterday’s resilience workshop. I can’t tell you enough how much I appreciate what all of you are doing for us!!!

I joined TTN in February of this year and attended a new member tea and received a lot of useful information and was warmly welcomed. There are so many resources to take advantage of despite the Pandemic; it’s amazing how much effort is put in.

I want to thank all of you for the fabulous job you’re doing keeping us all connected during this crazy time. I know how hard you and Claudia and others are working and I want you to know how very much I appreciate your efforts!!!!

Thank you for all your endeavors on behalf of the members of this organization. I am sitting here calm and happy. I am remembering how lost and alone I felt six years ago, before I joined. I made it my job to email everyone who was the contact person for each group that interested me. They were all closed at the time so I requested to be on the waiting list. One by one opportunities to join opened up for me. Today I am a member of five SIGs/TPGs. I have made some wonderful friends as well as very nice acquaintances. I am writing to let you know that what you do MATTERS to many women. It certainly matters to me.

I have often questioned where all the money goes that our chapter collects. I now see the value of having a "rainy day fund" for unexpected expenses. Having the use of TTNs Zoom capacity for committee meetings and for SIGs and TPGs is well worth the price of our dues and the money the organization makes on events.

TTN has provided me with many opportunities and options. Thank you!

I want to thank you and the committee for all your hard work in providing such great programs for us during this pandemic. I especially liked going into the rooms when we did resilience. The people in my 2nd room really expressed the issues we are facing and we realized we are not alone. I hope we can have another similar program and we can breakup into small groups for a longer period of time.

Again I know many of the people in my groups are thankful for the variety of programs you have given and are continuing to give us.
Please let everyone involved know that their efforts are appreciated.

Thanks again and I believe TTN is doing a wonderful job keeping its members engaged during this terrible time.
Thank you so much for providing these events. You have ‘stepped up’ during stressful times. Very much appreciated."
I thank you from the bottom of my heart, for all you have done for me/us during this time. Many blessings to you.
Thank you so much for all you are doing to keep us connected. The programming has been wonderful.
