Dear Folks,

What a great time we had last Saturday night as you graced our stage with your family.  We enjoyed every minute, and the audience did, too.  Diana said you were also wonderful guests at her Prairie Crossing Bed & Breakfast.  Thank you for coming and sharing your time with us.

Enclosed is a video of the program that night and also CD's that I told Daniel I would send to him.  He has a promising future with that rich voice of his.

Sincerely,

Darrell & Joyce Albright

Dear Norm & Trish and Family:

At the Bluegrass Festival in Burlington, a friend of ours gave us two of your CDs...  We really enjoy all of the beautiful songs on them, and pray that God will bless you for using your wonderful talents to praise His Name.

Thanks!

Dear Farnum Family,

Just a note to say Thank You for helping us at the concert... and wanted to let you know that $1,000.⁰⁰ was raised & presented to the Pregnancy Care Center for the Abstinence Program.  Please pray that the books that will be purchased & given to school children will change the attitudes of their families if they are wrong & reinforce them if they believe God's way is right...

Sincerely in Christ,

Hi Norm and Trish,

Thank you so much for the wonderful entertainment yesterday.

We had a Gray/Campbell Farmstead board meeting today.  Everyone there said they loved having you and your family there.  Jane, our president, says your oldest son is the next Garth Brooks.  I don't know if you think that is a compliment or not, but she meant it for one.  She thinks he is special!

Thanks again.  I am looking forward to hearing you (again) soon.  Let me know where you will be.

God bless.

Hello Ya'll!

I saw your wonderful family today at Bass Pro Shops... I was truly TOUCHED by the gift God has given your family in music.

I was the one from "Detroit" and the camera and phone... ha...

Anyway... I would like to order a CD from you.

My wife home schools, has 4 children and our 15 year old son is a very well talented guitarist.

I knew you were a Christian family when I walked by and was intrigued how your family entertained the guests...

God bless your ministry and hope we can have you in Michigan one day!

Was delighted to meet you and to tell you how much every one at First Baptist Church +50 group enjoyed your family and the music.  There were many favorable comments today at church.

Hopefully in the future you will be able to come and entertain us again.  Your family is delightful.

Dear Farnums,

We are so glad that you could come play at the festival & visit with us for a couple of days!  Thank you for participating in GospelGrass - you all really added a lot to that day & I know many people enjoyed your music.

Norm, thanks for being such a great emcee & for doing the banjo workshop.  That was such a help!

Love you all,

Yo, this is Roger over at Mountain Music Shop...  It’s got to be a real kick in the tail to have a bunch of kids...  and then all of a sudden you play instruments...  and then all of a sudden you got them playin’ instruments...  and then all of a sudden that stuff you made’s makin’ music with you!  That’s got to be kind of a cool thing!

Anyway, I listened to your album, dude, and I like it.  I kind of like the banjo playin’ on Battle of New Orleans...  it’s my favorite...  Blackberry Blossom is one of my favorite overall songs.  But I always like that Homegrown Tomatoes song.

It’s all pretty good.  It sounds all very 'family-bandy'.  And it’s got a certain charm to it.  It’s very Ozarks.  I like it.  That’s my review.  It’s good, so…  Bye!

Hi Y’all,

Thanks so much for attending the Missouri League of the South meeting...  Your music was a blessing and most entertaining.  However, even more of a blessing to me personally was the testimony of your lives when not on the stage.  It was obvious that yours is a family that loves the Lord and each other.  You are a living witness as to what it means to be in the center of God’s will.

Thanks again for making the state meeting such a success.

God Bless Y’all,

Bob Mills

Thank you so much for the CD.  We really are enjoying it.  We give it an A+ for dance-ability!  And of course, we love the Tomato-Heads.
