Mrs. Barnette,

You know that words can never be enough to express how knowing, working, and sharing life with you has meant to the A.K.E.A. family, my personal family, and ME.  I love you for all you’ve done, all you’ve created at the A.K.E.A., and most of all, who you’ve become in Christ.

You are a treasure, and I’m so proud of where you’re headed.

With the utmost respect, gratitude, and love,

Mr. Harmaning, Shihan
