You told me I would have fun and I laughed. You were right. I never thought preparing taxes for others would be this much fun! I'm ready to do it again next year.

Many in the neighborhood would be hard pressed to have their taxes prepared if they had to pay someone. This is a very valuable service.

…Your volunteers made us feel welcome and secure in providing us both with an outstanding professional service which in our lowered income status of recent years was most welcome. Thank you so much.

I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your [AARP] Tax-Aide service. I utilized the service…on February 2, 2003. …The personnel there were very kind, courteous, helpful and efficient. Thanks to them, I was able to get my Federal and State taxes prepared and e-filed in a short period of time. Please accept my thanks…

My father is a resident in a retirement community. Your [AARP Tax-Aide] volunteer spent hours and hours with him, helping him with his taxes. He has recently become very sick and confused. Your volunteer was wonderful, a saint. She helped him with a really tough spot. She went way beyond the call of duty and I just wanted to thank you.

We joined AARP for a three year membership about a year ago. I truly didn't know if you had anything I would ever need. I went to your web site a couple of weeks ago while I was surfing, and happened to see something about [AARP] Tax-Aide. My wife had gone on disability last year, and had gotten some back pay. We were in a panic about taxes on it. We made the call and set up an appointment…to get out taxes done. We were treated with courtesy and kindness. And the two ladies doing the taxes were not only very qualified, but so very nice and helpful. We will stay members of AARP from now on. I'm not talking cost here, if I had to pay $100, I would still be writing this letter.

For the first time in years, I finally got some money back. Not much, but I didn't have to borrow to pay taxes…I really feel great about what you have done….
