Hello George & the Staff of Sober Living Attached are some pictures from Iraq with my Sober Living hat. After taking the pictures, I started to have some second thoughts concerning my anonymity. I am at a place that I am going to be returning to the area and I am attempting to do things that could be negatively affected by things I have done in the past, but on the other hand Sober Living was a great experience in my life which helped me to get to where I am today and to have an opportunities to do those things I am attempting to do. Most of my good friends today I met at Sober Living when I lived there, so for that and other reasons I am not able to express the amount of gratitude I have for Sober Living and the people there. Your Friend in the Fellowship Attention: Mr. George Jahn and the staff of Sober Living. I left Sober Living about three years ago a much better man and I have never taken the opportunity to tell you how much I appreciate the staff, clients and all that I was able to learn in a reasonably short period of time. I say reasonably short period of time which was actually about one year, but if you put it into perspective, it is a reasonably short period of time considering I was an active alcoholic for more than twenty years. I am currently still living a clean and sober life here in Connecticut with my wife and children, working a fairly well paying job, attending AA meetings, and happy to be living life on life’s terms. I have to tell you, I actually miss the Monday night meetings pool side with the gang and all it had to offer. I wasn’t wild about being in attendance when I was there but, in retrospect; I would give anything to be able to have a group of caring sober individuals like George Jahn, Fred Rudnick, and the rest of the staff, at my disposal 24-7. I will have four years of sobriety on Sept 25th and I’d be lying if I said it was easy but it was certainly easier than living with the alternative…continued misery, shame, depression, dishonesty, not to mention the physical side effects. I am in good health and spirits today and happy to be alive. I’ve become a productive member of society. I’m able to be a better father, husband, friend and employee today than I ever was when I was using. I don’t want to drag this out so I will take this time to personally thank George Jahn and the wonderful staff of Sober Living, for giving me back a life that is better today than I ever could have ever dreamed. I continue living with God’s grace, “One Day at a Time”. Sincerely, Wayne Barron Milford, Connecticut Dear Sue, Pam, Jane & Mary, I’m writing this letter to express my sincere gratitude to all of you. Each one of you have given me a little piece of life to take with me as I go. Growing up isn’t easy when you have to start at age 31. The tools you provide, including the support you give, have helped me adjust to the real world, real feelings and real friends. I’ve heard people say in meetings that they are living a life beyond their wildest dreams. Now I understand what they mean. It’s not about who you know, what you have or where you live. It’s simply waking up everyday, at peace with yourself. That alone is really “Wild” for an alcoholic and addict like me. God bless all of you for what you do. From the bottom of my heart, I thank you. I thank God for leading me to Father Martin’s Ashley, which led me to Sober Living. Please call on me for anything. I am forever indebted to Sober Living. Love always & “God Bless”, Leslie Harris Delray Beach, Florida
