Great communication. Very punctual. Every detail that was planned was executed well. The membership at the American Legion were very pleased and want to have another night. All the comments were extremely positive and appreciated. Many had never been to a comedy night before. Daryl was a big hit. We will definitely have him back again. Thank you so much for giving these Veterans and their families such great memories.
