I have known Antoinette many, many years and have mentored and guided her in her quest to serve the underserved population of those with disabilities. She has a uniqueness about her in that she may be turned down, or turned away but she is never turned off. I have great admirat ion for those firstly, who want to volunteer to assist anyone in need.

Secondly, I truly admire a person who makes a way for someone whom they think can use a helping hand. I have witnessed this magical manner in which she works, quietly, without fanfare. She is trustworthy, honest, spiritually guided and terrifically dedicated to excellence.
