"George was so happy just to be able to go on a boat and when he caught a fish his face just lit up with joy. It was wonderful to have the opportunity to let him experience this trip, this is something we would have not of tried if it wasn't for this setting. Fish for Life has wonderful staff, people who didn't give awkward stares we are used to when he got scared and began to cry from the loud noises instead they showed us understanding and kindness. Weather we were sitting in the galley or fishing they the staff was interested in him having a great time and I am so thankful for that. This trip has meant so much to him, he is so proud of his trophy and tells everyone about the fish he petted and the boat he was on. Thank you so much for letting us be apart of fish for life I know this is a trip he will remember forever."

"Thank you so much for providing us such a wonderful fishing trip experience to our family. We never thought we, especially our son, Alex, would enjoy it so much (he was excited that he actually caught 3 small fish!). Brian, our designated fisherman, was awesome and very patient with all of us! The whole trip was well thought and organized. We will treasure the memories and definitely will be more comfortable to start fishing with Alex on our own. Thank again to you, your family and ll the volunteers for all of your generosity and kindness! Thanks." - Jenny Tran

"As my wife mentioned in her previous email, Elias and I had a GREAT time and want to thank you and your volunteers from the bottom of our hearts for taking on this idea and creating what I see as one of the greatest experiences a special needs child could have in their lifetime. From the pre-boarding announcements, red carpet, size of boat, prayer before heading to sea :), the experienced loving and caring volunteers, Fish for Life shirts, snacks (fruit), lunch & drinks ... We have been fortunate to take Elias on other organized outings involving special needs children, but this by far was FIRST CLASS. I wish you, your family and team continued success with expanding this program. It was truly a magical day! - Earl R. Bentancourt

"At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I just wanted to thank you and all responsible again for the wonderful opportunity extended to us. Besides the time on the water, from the red carpet introductions, to the gifts at the end, and everything in between, it was a witness to the level of service and labor of love to create memories that will last a lifetime." - John Ley
