When you address the issues in the comments, add a comment to tell me you have done so. You can also add your own comments. When you have fixed everything, send it back to me for more comments. I need everything that was on the last file so I know what the issues are with your memo. Continue this until I tell you this is okay. Then send me the next one. Page 5 of 5
