Here’s what other Rotarians have had to say about Gem’s presentation: "Gem's speech should be given to every Rotary Club and board meeting in the world!” President, Rotary Club of Westchester, California. "I found Gem Munro informative, engaging and articulate", said Chuck Anderson, Past District Governor for District 5280, "I was going to leave the luncheon early, but could not because of my interest in what he was saying.” “This club has been in existence for 11 years. We’ve had more than 400 speakers and I’ve never heard a better or more compelling speech than I heard here today.” Rotarian, Osoyoos, BC. "Gem's speech and program is possibly the most fabulous and important I have ever heard in my 59 years in Rotary." Lloyd Hild, Rotarian, Westchester (Los Angeles).
