"It's like sitting in a theatre. But, turn your head and there are Charleston's historic places right in front of you. We saw it all. We could not believe how much we learned about our own city." The Kramers, Charleston, SC	Edward Crisp's Grand Model
"There was this photograph on the screen from the Civil War. When I looked out the window, I got goose bumps. There was the same house, the same street. Nobody could describe it like that." Tom Grimball, Mt. Pleasant, SC	East Battery during the war
"Dear Marvin, I wanted to thank you and let you know that myself, Christine Griffin and Amy Blyth took your wonderful tour on Tuesday, and it was great. The bus was extremely comfortable. Marvin, you have a wonderful personality and made the tour most enjoyable. The pictures and music made a great impression. Many thanks from the Convention and Visitors Bureau." Charla Roberts, August, 1990
"Dear Marvin, Thank you for entertaining us while we did your tour. DOIN' THE CHARLESTON TOURS is fun and different. We enjoyed it very much. Your thoughtfulness means so much!" A special thanks from the Franklin family August, 1990
"Dear Marvin, I want to thank you for your kindness and generosity in offering DOIN' THE CHARLESTON TOURS to the National Conference of Lieutenant Governors. Everyone who took the tour said it was wonderful, very well done with the video pictures and music, a concept they had not seen before. The conference was a huge success thanks to people like you showing them our gracious and warm hospitality. Sincerely, Emilie Theodore" (Wife of Lt. Governor of SC, Nick Theodore) August, 1991	Old Fireproof building
"Dear Marvin, Many thanks for your help with our recent trip to Charleston. It was very enjoyable and informative. We learned some things to help us sell Charleston. It's people like you that make this possible. I hope we can work together in the near future. Toni D'Amico, Supervisor, Rosenbluth Travel, Inc." September, 1991, Philadelphia, Pa.
"Dear Marvin, This letter is merely an attempt to express the gratitude of the entire John and Sara Johnson Family Reunion group for your wonderful treatment and service  You narrated and explained the tour superbly. Many of the group had never lived in the South and know very little about the history of our forefathers.. .and were very excited after the tour. There is so much Black history that cannot be covered in one tour... .May we re-emphasize that your were MARVELOUS. You know your history and how to articulate it. The audio-visual aids greatly enhanced the narration. IT WAS A GREAT TOUR! Thanks for making our day." M. Loretta Gaskin, Bellport, NY, August, 1992	54th Mass Regiment Storming Battery Wagner
Letter to Ms. Mary Forbes, Charleston Realtor "Dear Mary, We are the sisters you met on the beach. We forgot to call you before we left and I wanted to let you know we went on your friend, Marvin's tour and had a wonderful time! I think he knows everything there is to know about Charleston. I think he is a little bit of a ham, which makes his tour that much better. Best wishes, Yvonne Hall" June, 1993
"Dear Marvin, As promised here is the picture that we took of you at the Visitors' Center in Charleston on Thanksgiving Day. I think it turned out very nice. We enjoyed so much DOIN' THE CHARLESTON TOURS. Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Sincerely, Roman and Mary Kosinski" Chicago, Illinois, December, 1994
Email to Charleston Travelogue "We just got married on October 19 and spent four wonderful days in Charleston. We had a fabulous time. I thank the travelogue for its use in finding things to do. We recommend that if you plan to visit Charleston for the first time, take DOIN' THE CHARLESTON TOURS. What a presentation. We took that first and it really gave us a good picture of what else was available in the area." Chris & Cheryl Rondeau, November, 1996 Chris_Rondeau@ccmail.orl.mmc.com
"Dear Marvin, I just want to thank you for taking me and my whole family on your tour. I have never seen a tour with a multimedia presentation. Mom and Dad were especially pleased with your humor, although I have to admit it catches you off guard if you aren't sharp. The kids are fascinated by history. They were enthralled with your story about the firing of the first shot of 'The War Between the States'. You have a warm and generous nature, which you graciously share with others. Best wishes, Virgene Ideker" Arvada, Colorado, July, 1997	Firing at Fort Sumter
"Dear Marvin, Thank you so much for your wonderful tour. Louise and I often think that New York is the center of the universe. Charleston is in its own way so cosmopolitan. The girls especially liked driving through 'The Market' and hearing the story about the 'Charleston Eagles'. Thank you, Jay Lukowski" New York City, September, 1998	Charleston Market 1850's
"Dear Marvin, former college buddy, Masonic brother, and friend, You did good Kiddo. I know we shocked you by dropping in without notice, but I'm glad we did. You do an awesome tour. Visit us anytime. We love you." The Feinbergs, Morristown, New Jersey, October, 2000
