“Dear Irene and Ian (and all the band),
Thank you so much for keeping things running so smoothly last night and for taking all the minor hiccups and deviations in your stride. Without your calm and reassuring presence at the helm, it would have felt a very different event.
Your music is always infectious and the mixed choice of dances last night was excellent. And, Irene, your non-judgemental and inclusive calling is truly second to none!
Special thanks for ‘You’ve Got a Friend’ ”
