   Hey Bernie!
   The show was great man and the message was even better. It was nice to not have the typical “Ben Stein” Ph.D. carrying geriatric preaching to us about drinking! But seriously man, you really opened my eyes and put things into perspective especially with myself being a student-athlete (Baseball) as well. Wish you and your family all the best in the future.

   Thanks for coming to La Verne and giving us a few good laughs. Your message is really great and it’s nice not to have such an orthodox method of teaching a lesson. Much luck.

   Thanks for coming to the University. To tell you the truth I was expecting a long lecture like last year , with a bunch of pictures trying to scare the students into not drinking, but your method was really effective in the way that you came in and slowly worked your way into the topic of drinking and drugs after you had everyones attention. Your message and story were very inpiring and im sure that you probably have changed many peoples lives in some way tonight. God Bless and keep it up.

    I wanted to take a minute to let you know what a powerful impact you have had on our schools and on me personally. I have the opportunity over the years to attend seminars like this one but this one had let me appreciate how grateful I am to be alive and to make the right decisions in my life. Thank you for coming to our school today, I really enjoyed it. It has inspired me to try to start over and make new and better choices in my life .You really opened up my mind and made me think. I appreciate the information and advice you have given, as well as the connections you have shared with me. You must be a very strong person to come and tell us about your personal life. You’ve helped a lot of people, and I hope you can help others. Also, thanks for the memorable laughs and heart touching story. May God bless in your future endeavors and in your life. Again, thank you so much. I sincerely appreciate your generosity.
    Thank You
