Testimonials; "Mr. Cheevers, aside from his strong physical presence and uncanny resemblance to President Lincoln, was informative and well prepared. His performance was excellent and I highly recommend it." J. Dolan, Asst. Principal, Tucker School, Milton, MA.

"George's striking physical appearance put a sense of awe into all students who saw him stride through the hallways." His presentation to my AP US History class was "impressive and his knowledge of Mr. Lincoln was deep" and he "wove numerous excerpts from past speeches to clearly illustrate a position once taken by our sixteenth president." T. Kearns, Gloucester HS, Gloucester, MA.
