job and it happened to be a VERY picky Client. Well I have the advantage of
living very close to Steve and Jean. Steve offered to come and help. With
Steve's help we completed the strip and wax job. I learned so much and I am
extremity grateful for Steve and his commitment to helping his members succeed.
