Dear Stephen:
Friends come in mysterious ways. When I contacted you several years ago regarding my A.H. Fox upgrade project, you were just a name in an advertisement. Our many conversations have brought us together in solving problems, laughter, and appreciation for one another's point of view.
Your artistic and technical expertise in your craft is superior. You guided me through a maze that brought my vision to reality. I'm looking at the game sketches you sent me before you ever touched a graver to steel. They are a marvelous reminder of your patience and desire to please me, your customer. The results on my Fox not only delight me but all who have inspected this gun. Bravo!
Trust and caring are sometimes difficult to find in the business world. You have delivered these to me in spades. Working with you has been a joy. We never shook hands. We did touch the same shotgun, and in so doing effected a unique, wonderful, and lasting relationship. You have my unqualified permission to use photos of my gun, quotes from this letter, or my name as a reference, for any purpose.
I can't say enough about your work, but especially about you, my friend.
All Good,
Bill Wise.
