Hello Leland,

 

I will leave it up to you but I believe it could be in your best interest for us to talk and introduce you to Alan Crim and his wife.. I appreciate your passion as I too am very passionate about those who would use their power and money to take advantage of the little guy!  As the founder of Dare To Dream I have made it my quest and do my best to see that justice is served.

 

I have also learned that things are not always what they seem. Those of us who are passionate about certain issues, where justice or the lack there of are at issue, can sometimes be deceived....God knows, I have been in my travels!

 

If you are open for us to meet and introduce you to Alan and His family, lets do it!

 

I also believe I'm more familiar with this issue then you may be. Both my husband and I know Tony.  He first came to my husband and I for assistance and we counseled him as best we could but he did not follow up in a manner that we believe may have resolved this whole mess before Mr. Crim found it necessary to seek legal advice..

 

No matter!  My husband Dan and I, will not take sides as that's not the way the Dare To Dream Network operates.  As the founder, I have only one goal in mind when I assist someone and that is to get to the foundation where the truth lies.  Sometimes that can be an impossible task, especially when some are not open to listen.

 

Please understand Leland, I do not know the Crim's any longer nor better then I know Tony.  I have my own feelings about things as it would be impossible, being human, not to have an opinion. But my opinion is not what's at issue here.

 

From what you wrote I can tell you that it sounds more like Tony talking then a neutral party, that's why I feel it may benefit all involved to hear the other side.  And after doing so you might conclude there are other players here, flies in the ointment, and you may also find that Tony should have been more open to the communication Alan desired early on.

 

Because this has cost Mr. Crim a great deal of personal aggravation and money I'm not sure if this situation can be resolved at this point without the court making a ruling. But I believe you owe it to yourself to hear his side of this conflict and believe me, Alan too, has a side.

 

Mrs. Crim has just come home from the hospital where she underwent a serious operation and Mr. Crim has not been well for over a year now. But we spoke today after I received your email.  Alan requested that Dan & I could be present if you two did talk.  We said that would be no problem.

 

So I will leave it up to you. Decide and let me know.  I will give you our phone # 505-685-0026... The best time to reach us is in the afternoon as we work in the studio in the mornings and then later in the day into the late evening... We usually have more free time on Sundays, afternoon is best!

 

Leland if you are willing to take the time to talk, in person, with Alan and his family, we will set it up at your convenience.

 

If you're wondering why Alan was not open to talk to you before it was because he had no idea who you were and he had already been receiving, since this argument began, some very odd calls.. and at all hours of the night. And he does have an attorney who has an obligation to act in Alan's best interest. She may advise him against this meeting. But Alan requested that I follow up and I'm doing that!

 

Take care. Stay well!

 

Warm Regards,

 

Barbara

I would absolutely be open to a personal meeting with Alan Crim and his wife with you. In fact, my hope is that there is some way of defusing this crisis without additional harm to anyone.

Thank you for your generous offer. I will call you ASAP, would you be so kind as to inquire what day the Crim's would like to meet? Leland

No response or call came

Hi Leland,

 

I have not heard from you other then your business email and was wondering why.. If Sunday, tomorrow, was or is not good for you I wish you would let me know.. If you have decided to go in another direction the courtesy of a yes or no answer would be appreciated..

 

I realize you're busy Leland but we all of us are as well and with Christmas so close time is even more precious.

 

If you've changed your mind and do not intend to meet with Alan, I have to be courteous and let he and his family know.  It was at your request that I set up a meeting. If the time period was/is not good I wish you had communicated that or at least something with me... Thank You...

 

Regards,
