Hi Anne Marie,
There are some real good ones out there. I know a handful of A.A.'s that "do conferences", they live in the Cleveland - Akron Area, and they have speaker tapes and leads. I will give you a few names, but in case I miss some of them that are good for others, don't take it personally. There are many more. These are just a few that I know personally as friends, and there stories blow me away.
Beth G. from Brecksville OH - over 30 years sober
Tim T from Westlake OH - 26 years sober
Jimmy M from Florida - 42 years sober (His is the BEST lead in A.A. - hands down)
Kent C from Sandusky OH - over 20 years
Burns B from Louisville KY - over 30 years and is an MD. I love Burns!
Tom B from Avon OH - 43 years sober - great guy and super lead
Larry V from Berea OH - over 25 years sober and a former sports coach
These are folks I've heard that have great messages but I don't know them personally:
Clancy I from Cali
Chris R from Texas
Sandy B from Florida
Dr. Paul O who was from Ohio
Don C from Ohio
