“The ABC San Diego Fall Golf Classic is our Chapter’s major annual fundraiser. Without your brilliant ad lib and outrageous sense of humor, it would be just another expensive golf event. Your ability to turn the evening raffle into a hilarious, ad lib comedy routine, is the highlight of this tournament every year – and a gold mine for our non-profit organization. ABC guests leave knowing they’ve received more than their money’s worth in terms of laughter and enjoyment. We owe a huge debt of thanks to you in this regard.”
