To: Brian S. Sigman, Executive Director, Connecticut Services for the Blind

(Donna’s Current Employer)

“I am the new Neuropsychologist at Easter Seals Greater Hartford Rehabilitation Center in Windsor, CT.  I recently had the pleasure of working with Donna Gore on a case involving one of your clients.  I found her to be highly competent, insightful, dedicated and intelligent.  Her commitment to the client was truly remarkable and her willingness to go beyond the call of duty was impressive.  I can honestly say that her contribution to my case allowed me to have increased understanding of some of the more complex nuances, which I might not have fully appreciated without her.  She is certainly an asset to your organization and a positive role model for other workers in the field.  Thank you for the opportunity to allow me to benefit from one of your outstanding employees. I am certainly the better for it!”

“I just wanted to send you a quick note and tell you what a FANTASTIC program you put on at the State Capitol last week on behalf of BESB (Board of Education and Services for the Blind).  You (and your organization) deserve a great amount of praise for putting together a program that was informative and emotional.  It was a pleasure to have attended this with Dr. Petit and again, I just wanted to say “great job” and keep up the good work on behalf of all those that you advocate for…”

“I worked with Donna on the annual Board of Education Services for the Blind Awards ceremony at the State Capital. Wow! She began preparing a year in advance and kept me updated the entire time. She coordinated with the winners from all over the state, their mentors, colleagues, and friends. She was efficient and a ball of energy the entire time. She made all the award winners feel as if they were the most important people in the state. The ceremony was organized, elegant, timely, and was done with great care and love.

If you need someone who puts their heart and soul into projects large and small and is organized and upbeat Donna is your person. It was a marvelous experience working with her.
She is a great advocate for those with disabilities as well as for victims of crimes-she is a truly caring and dedicated soul.”

“In your absence (referring to Attorney, Joseph Clary, Donna’s former Supervisor).  I had the opportunity to observe Donna Gore’s work.  I know you have always spoken highly of Donna’s capabilities but I saw first hand the quality of her efforts.  Her research skills are excellent.  She is a good writer, she is thorough and her follow-through is exceptional.

I’d also like to add that Donna’s disposition on a day-to-day basis is always friendly and cheerful.  To my recollection, I’ve never seen her come into work without a smile on her face and a friendly hello. I am sure that you are aware of all of these things, but I thought it would please you to know that others have observed it as well.”
