| Family, Friends & Fans, I started this CD project consisting of ten songs in the year 2001. Half way thru the project my sister Gwen died in an automobile accident along with her fiancee Larry. They were planning on getting married in two weeks. Less than two months after my sister's death, my Mom Corinnia passed away very unexpectedly from a broken heart since loosing her daughter. At that time I as a songwriter and musician, just lost interest in my music. Since then, I have rewritten two songs that I have dedicated to my sister Gwen and my Mother. At the request of Donna, I have decided to add them to the CD and share them with you. |

| NOTICE $3.00 from the sale of each CD will be donated to "The Mission of Hope" Cancer Fund located in Jackson MI. Both my sister Gwen and my Mother as well as Donna's Mother and Father had battled cancer during their lifetime, so Donna and I wanted to use our music to help the less fortunate. If you would like to help support our music and our cause, then click on the link below and order your CD today. You'll be glad you did! |
