Sandra, this recognition is SO long overdue, and I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your exceptional guidance and unwavering support over the past few years. You have consistently gone above and beyond what was expected of you. I still remember when I first started three and a half years ago—you would clear the main queue before me so I could come into work with a clean slate. That was a powerful example of servant leadership and teamwork, principles I deeply value from my own management training. When you embraced the challenge of mentoring two inexperienced fellas to help turn around a struggling region, your ability to guide and train us made a profound impact on my professional growth. There were times when I doubted my ability to succeed with the new systems, procedures, and protocols I was learning, but your encouragement never wavered. You taught this position with passion, integrity, and consistency. You provided us with the essential tools for success and consistently led by example. The time you have invested in me has been more than I could ever have imagined. I want to emphasize the importance of personal development and your involvement. Over two years ago, we discussed my college education, and your encouragement to finish my degree changed my path. That conversation has stuck with me, and without it, I may never have considered it. I am now 100% committed to achieving this goal. Your support extended beyond my academics—you were there during challenging personal moments, allowing me to share my thoughts or simply lending a listening ear. The time you invested in developing my professional and personal growth plan is a true testament to your extraordinary commitment to your team and who you are as a person. Sandra, with immense gratitude, I want to thank you for being such a positive influence in my life. I truly appreciate everything you do!
