I meant to tell you that your Bentley driver – the mom said was the nicest person in the whole world. I have worked with him before, and he really is wonderful. However, I am bad with names, could you send me his name as well. Thank you!!

I wish to again compliment the professionalism and courtesy of driver Josh Hayes, who drove me from Lexington to Benton, KY and back on Friday, December 4, 2009. It was a long day of work made much easier by Mr. Hayes. Please offer him my thanks and compliments, and I will be happy to recommend Gold Shield to others.

George, thanks once again for your help in making another “Dream” come true. Misty and her friends had a great time at the Miley Cyrus concert. Dennis the driver was right on top of everything. He had drinks in the cooler and was on the spot coming and going. I am sending you a photo (Misty & Miley) from the event so that you guys at Gold Shield can see what good work that you do.

Just wanted to let you know how pleased I was with your service. The driver was professional, on time, and knew where he was going. The car was clean and comfortable. I would definitely use Gold Shield again.

Brandon, please see the feedback our CEO & CFO left about their stay in Lexington, KY. “Transportation all went smoothly. John and ELT are appreciative of your effort to make the week a success. Not only for the training itself but also for the time together without distractions. The sincerest feedback of how well it went should be extended to all the organizations.” Thanks again for your contribution in making our event and training very successful.
Melissa C. – Pharmaceutical Corporation
Words can’t express how much we appreciate your generosity for helping to make our son’s 7th birthday party a “hit.” We had 12 very excited & happy kids when the limo pulled up for their last top secret mission. They thought they were so cool riding in the limo. All of the kids are still talking about the party. Even Graham’s teacher has been talking about it at school. Again, thank you so much!!!
The Wilson Family – Birthday Patron
Hello, I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed working with Gold Shield at the Kelley wedding at Talon Winery. Your Bentley driver was on time & professional. I really appreciate him waiting patiently as the bride & groom partied a little longer than expected. Thanks so much.
Ashley – Always Planned – Wedding Coordinator
Mr. Doyle, we wish to sincerely thank you for your interest in the Kentucky Law Enforcement Memorial Foundation. We were honored to be considered as one of the benefactors of the Oscar’s Gala and appreciate your generous donation of transportation on the Maker’s Mark tour package. We realize there are many other worthy causes and feel privileged that you would offer the time and recognition of your company.
Charles M. – Executive Director – Kentucky Law Enforcement Memorial Foundation
Brandon, many thanks to you and your team for all of your help. Thankfully you understood the big picture which added a comfort level for me.
Dimitri – CFO – Hotel Corporation
Many thanks for the great job which you all did in providing transportation in connection with my daughter’s wedding. With the number of people arriving and leaving and the many facets of the wedding which could give rise to anxiety, we were comfortable in knowing that you would provide the transportation at appointed times and places.
Richard M. – Father of the Bride
Thanks so much for ably getting me from Cincinnati, OH to Lexington, KY earlier this month. I enjoyed the ride and appreciate your professionalism and efficiency.
Karl R. – Washington, D.C.
On August 12th & 15th, your company transported my wife from the airport in Lexington, KY to Danville, KY and returned her as well. The purpose of her visit was to see her only brother, who was terminally ill.
My wife is 69 years old, has limited mobility, hasn’t traveled by air in more than 20 years, and has only traveled by air, unaccompanied, once in her life (more than 40 years ago). The trip was very stressful and tiring for her, and stressful for me because I was unable to accompany her.
From my initial telephone call for information, through to her return, Gold Shield was a pleaser to deal with. We both want to thank you for your kind, efficient, safe, helpful assistance in completing two “legs” of her trip in a manner that eased a great deal of stress for her, and for me as well. My wife was very appreciative of the assistance and friendliness of the driver. Please accept our sincere “Thank You” for your assistance.
Ron & Jane M. – Client – Long Valley, NJ
Thank you for providing me with the wonderful transportation service I received. I thought at first I had missed getting picked up because the plane was late. However, airport staff immediately commented about the super service of your company and your drivers and I was not to worry about your reliability. Within ten minutes of my call, Mr. Thompson arrived. We figured out what had happened: the arrival time on the schedule was given as 9:00 pm instead of 8:00 pm – either a time zone thing or a typo. Since the plane was late, it all worked out perfectly.
I returned on Sunday morning and the driver was at the front door of the Embassy Suites at 5:45 am to return me to the Lexington airport. I experienced the same gracious interaction with this driver. I especially enjoyed learning more about your lovely city from both men.
My Florida travel coordinator selected your company and by copy of this letter, I am advising of my great satisfaction with the choice of Gold Shield. I feel totally confident in recommending your company to any of my friends.
