For Kathy:

As a composer sits in front of an empty page, or a painter in front of a blank canvas, something inspires them to create something beautiful.
In the same way you start each year looking at a fresh team and are inspired to make them into something beautiful and creative.
You are the composer, we are your empty page -
waiting to be filled by your creativity and passion.

You know each of us, as a musician knows every note they are to play.
You place us precisely to create harmonious chords and melodies.
We are the instruments, but you are the conductor.
It is you who make the many individual instruments into a grand orchestra,
working together under your guidance.

You dreamt, you believed, you created, you succeeded.

You are the treble clef, without you the notes have no direction.
We are your symphony,
and tomorrow we will play as we have never played before...

for you, and for the world.
