"Thank you so much for all your efforts and pics in providing mom with the CCTV. Your warm and gracious letter has given me and my two brothers Win & Scott great satisfaction and confidence that you have indeed made a happy woman out of Jane. I can’t tell you how much this will change her quality of life but I’m sure being in the business you’re in you have an idea. My best to you and your great company!"
Peter R.
Consumer visiting with his mom
"Working with NELVB has been a truly positive experience. I first connected with Scott over a decade ago to support one of my students, and his involvement made a lasting impact on both the student and their family. Since then, he’s continued to provide valuable support through demos and programs. It’s always been about what’s best for the kids, and that’s what matters most to me."
