My name is ms Maureen Antoine and I am writing this letter on t1he behalf of the above bus driver. He is such a pleasant driver and was very caring and helpful to me. also his greetings towards the incoming and out going passengers made me feel very comfortable I felt very pleased for the manner of his operation. I was lost on the way to my home in which i took the wrong bus. The driver reassured me not to worry he will take me there safely in which he did, I must let you know as a senior citizen I was a bit worried but thanks to the driver I reached my destination safely.

I would like to offer my sincerest gratitude to him
