"I wanted to let you know that we just cracked the first carton and unwrapped our very first 100th Anniversary Commemorative book. It is absolutely spectacular and surpasses our expectations in its grandeur. Stunning, elegant, vibrant and colourfully fun...just what we wanted.

"So many people - employees, consultants, lawyers, accountants - worked incredibly hard to make Goldcorp the success it is today. The fabulous book you wrote about Goldcorp's first six years has given these people a record of that work. It has the exciting, edge-of-the-seat quality that I hoped for. In that sense, it's as much about celebrating the passion people have shown as it is a company history."

"Let me thank you and your incredible team once again for a job very well done! You have created an amazing history book and have managed to capture exactly the feeling that we were going for - warm, inviting, well-branded and a fascinating tale that spans 100 years. Many people who have picked up the Purdy's book to flip through it find they are still sitting there an hour later, engrossed in the story. "

"Mom passed away this morning at age 95. We have spent much of the day reading the wonderful book on her life that you put together a few years ago and it will be featured at her service. Although the book was a wonder when it was done its true worth is only now apparent as we have such a complete record of such a marvellous life. Thank you again for such a marvellous gift."

"After I took the reins of the family business from my dad, I knew I had to get his story down in a book. I'm so happy I did. We gave copies to our employees who had been with us for over five years as a service award and they loved it. It also serves to introduce Dad’s story to our new employees. To me, this book is like a values road map. As our company moves into the future, it’s reassuring to know that we have my dad’s story to inspire us along the way. I can flip to a page and be reminded, “Oh, right, that’s how my dad handled a situation like the one I’m in now!"

"The reaction to the St. Paul’s Hospital book has been amazing. We sold out our first print run without really doing any promotion. People are pounding down the doors!"

"I was extremely uneasy about doing a biography of my life. My children pressured me to do it but I had serious reservations and almost cancelled the project many times. I simply didn't see how anyone would be interested in my life story. Well, I'm pleased to say that it has been accepted by family, friends and colleagues beyond my wildest expectations. As the word has started to get out, the demand for the book floors me. I am so grateful to the entire Echo Memoirs team for their dedicated assistance, enthusiasm and encouragement to keep me going to completion."
