- Coley Harvey: “There’s no intuition like a mother’s. Not long after I drove away from Bristol one August Friday two years ago, my mom told me she had a feeling I wasn’t done with the Worldwide Leader. ‘Someday,’ she said, ‘you’ll return.’ Well, someday is today. I’m back home. And I’m beyond thrilled to say that not only was she right, but in the midst of the most challenging period of all of our lives, this return has been my greatest triumph. To the dear friends I get to call co-workers once again, I am humbled and grateful to be welcomed back with such open arms. Let’s get back to work — together.”
