"Hi Tom, Thank you SO much for sharing your Memorial Day with us. You sounded wonderful and I know many of the runners said that hearing you lifted their spirits. I think having you there will inspire many to return to our race in future years. My daughter really enjoyed your music. I also really enjoyed the band in the parade - truly a highlight for many. Thank you so much!"

“Dia duit, Tom!"  (I’m putting today’s Gaelic lesson from Grammy Fran to use!) Thanks for visiting my classroom once again this year. You always do such a great job of both educating and entertaining the troops. Our St. Paddy’s Days are so festive thanks to you.

I also wanted to compliment you all- you are quite talented and we have received numerous compliments on your music. My GM loved it! Again, thank you so much and I hope to see you down here again sometime.

Best,

Thank you so very much for your participation in the Togus event! Many remarked on your performance and how it really enhanced the presentation of the memorial service. Between that and the taps people were very emotional.

Dear "Pipecleaner" (as my kids referred to you),

We were all so grateful for your participation last Wednesday. The children and teachers got a lot out of it. You are so good at it. Maybe you should take this show on the road!
