Dear Mr. Gorkin:

It was a great pleasure to have you as our guest speaker here at Tellabs in Ashburn. Certainly you brought a smile to our day; as well as insight into the stress inherent in a company being "acquired" by a competitor.

We enjoyed your work very much and would certainly recommend your stress management seminar to other companies.

Sincerely,

Shirley E. 0wens
Human Resources Coordinator
