Message from the president
Hello there! My name is Donna J Jodhan, and I am the president of Sterling Creations. Sterling Creations is delighted to bring you their latest newsletter and we invite you to read more about some of the exciting and interesting things that we have been doing for the past few months. The last quarter has been especially rewarding for us as we have managed to expand our business as well as our partnerships. I personally have embarked on some very exciting new ventures and you can read more about it in our third quarter news.
The fall promises to be very interesting for our company and we are looking forward to it with great anticipation. We are expecting great things for all of our teams as they strive to continue their work in their respective disciplines. We hope that you enjoy this fall season as fall can be one of the most enjoyable times of the year.
On behalf of the Sterling Creations team I thank you for your continuing support and feedback because with it we can only get better and without it our hopes will only dwindle.
I would like to wish our Canadian customers a very Happy Thanksgiving.
Best wishes for an enjoyable fall.
