MY LATEST 2014 TESTIMONIALS. . . . 

>Tony,
 
Received a very special delivery, and wanted to "thank you" for making such a unique and quality product.
 
The Shillelagh/Cane seems as if it was custom made specifically for me, and the slot machine knobs diameter, is perfectly sized for the palm of my hand.
 
Due to the weakness caused by my neuromuscular disease, finding a suitable cane/walking stick that I could actually utilize, has been problematic...
Until now!
 
Thanks Again,
Don

HERE IS MY VERY LATEST TESTIMONIAL...FROM AN AUTHOR IN MARTHAS' VINYARD. . .

Good afternoon, Tony!

    It is now 5 months since I shattered my kneecap and I will be going into surgery tomorrow for a little fine tuning.  I would not have made it through the last 5 months without the aid of your marvelous canes.  When I was first injured I purchased a one-piece dogwood root cane which was capable of bearing nearly 100 pounds more than I expected to put on it.  Subsequently, I purchased a diamond willow cane with a naturally-shed antler handle as my "dress" cane for business and formal occasions.  Most recently I purchased a unique apple cane with an ergonomic mahogany handle.  It has now turned into my workhorse cane throughout my recovery and rehabilitation.  For those of us going through a rough patch during the course of our rehabilitation we have developed a dependence upon your products and derive both strength and confidence in their durability and fashionability.  Throughout my rehabilitation I could have survived without your products but it would not have been either as pleasurable or as much fun

        Sincerely,

            Christopher Knowles

Hi Tony,

I just wanted to let you know we received the Betty Boop walking stick on Thursday and my Mom began using it that evening. The true test was her taking it to the mall with her on Friday to meet friends. She said it helped tremendously and she wasn’t nearly as sore when she came home. She loves showing it off and has been taking it with her everywhere. J All her friends want to know where she found such a cute cane. It’s quite a show-piece for her. I’m not sure how I can thank you or tell you how much it means to me that she is happy to use the walking stick and that she is in less pain after her little outings. Plus I don’t worry as much about her losing her balance and falling. And, of course, thank you for sending it out so quickly. You’re a wonderful man that is improving the quality of life for many people, not only those that use your beautiful walking sticks but for their families that care for them as well. Thank you!!!Beth Blase & family

 Hi Tony,
I just received your beautiful stick this afternoon and it's absolutely perfect. Thank you, and have a fabulous Christmas!
Kind regards,
Lisa

FROM PASTOR JESS OF CALIFORNIA whom I donated 3 average stick for his fundraiser...

Wow!  Thank you very much for the 3 canes. I know I said I would sell them here to use the money for bibles but after seeing them I know exactly what to do. They are just the right size for two elderly women I know in separate churches and I know they are in need of a cane, so with your permission I would like to give a cane to each of them. I know God gets all the Praise & Glory but I will let them know that they were custom made by you for them. Thanks again Tony & God bless you for your help.

PS not only are your canes works of art but also an instrument in helping someone to move around safely. I can’t thank you enough.

from Lynne in New York:thanx soooo much for the quick delivery!!!!  i needed a cane to be left in the house (for when i walk the dog) and one in the car.  i forgot to bring my cane with me the other day when i went to meet my friend in the shopping mall and the sciatica was so bad that i had to sit down for 20 minutes to recuperate.  that won't happen again now.

i left a message with your wife that i received the cane and i'm thrilled with it--it's perfect and has a real nice feel in the hand, too.  love the carved monogram and my dog responds to the whistle!

it's time to leave great feedback for you now but will get lost in your other great feedback, lol.

thanx again, Tony, for going the extra mile to make this lady very happy...  :-)

HERE IS A NOTE FROM A CATHOLIC PRIEST IN AUSTRALIA--WHOM BOUGHT ONE OF MY 'AARON STAFFS'. . . .
Dear Tony,

The Staff arrived safely - I'm amazed at how
quick it was! I absolutely love it: thank you!

Of course, Customs & Quarantine opened it, and
I'm glad it passed their steely gaze!

I would be very interested too in acquiring one
or two more, even longer ones if you ever come
across them (I want to give one to my Bishop: he
is VERY tall)and as gifts to friends.

Many thanks Tony. God bless you across the
world.

(At least you get to see the Moon the right way
up!)

With prayers and thanks

Fr Mick Taylor
