Dear Butler Academy,
It was
graduation day, March 6, 2009, and my fellow students and I
were enjoying an evening in the most beautiful of
surroundings. The night was filled with camaraderie,
laughter, tears of joy, and most of all, memories. Our
instructors gathered to stand before the audience in the
Blue Room of the lavish Palace to extol the virtues of each
student presented there before them. As we listened to the
words spoken on behalf of our friends; our colleagues; we
swelled with a sense of pride and accomplishment for each
other.
Certainly, one selects The International Butler Academy
because of a passion for service. The excellent curriculum
and the outstanding instructors, beckons students, from all
walks of life, from everywhere in the world. But, what you
cannot imagine, during an eight week course, is the
opportunity to develop relationships that will guide you;
transform you for the rest of your life. The friendships
evolved, not only between students, but with instructors,
will sustain a lifetime. Something not easily achieved in a
prevalent, here today, gone tomorrow, society.
That
graduation night, when we recounted the valuable lessons we
learned at The International Butler Academy, the countless,
wondrous, field trips we traveled to, and how we were able
to use our new found skills in the exciting events held
during the course, it was clear that the memories we were
leaving with were many. But, really, only the beginning of
the memories we will have as friends and colleagues. I truly
thank you, and The International Butler Academy, for
affording students the opportunity to grow as professionals,
together. We couldn’t have done it without you. We are
Professional Butlers with fond friendships and memories. In
the end, you have served us. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Lynn Jackson - USA
