Music...
it can calm the soul, or incite a riot,
It can injure the heart or help to mend a wounded spirit,
It is so powerful that the God of all creation, included it in his roadmap for our lives!
Powerful enough, that King Saul, when troubled by evil spirits, had David play his Harp, and the Bible says, the evil spirits would leave!

That is an awesome force at work! I can think of very few things, that can touch and move us easier....

The most wonderful thing about music, is the way that we can use it, when it comes from the bottom of our hearts, to lift up the human spirit, and WORSHIP THE MOST HIGH GOD!!!

To give Him praise and thanksgiving for all the marvellous things that He has done in our lives!! A song from the heart, is like a prayer of worship, and NO MUSIC, COULD EVER BE MORE POWERFUL THAN THAT!!!


From the time that I was a very young man, I have had this love of music, and a desire to someday be in a position to share all the love that I have with the world, and worship the Lord with my whole being. I am NOTHING on my own, and I can very cleary see that the Lord has given me ALL the talent that I have, and my hearts desire is to use that talent, to worship and glorify Him, and create joy in peoples' hearts!

I have been playing the guitar since I was 7, and I have been singing since I was about 12.

That is my first love, singing! The burning within my bosom, is to be able to share this gift with the world, and then one day to be able to have studio of my own, where I can create without inhibition, my worship and praise songs, to glorify the King of Kings, and bless the hearts of His children!!

I would LOVE to be able to help OTHER young artists, to reach their goals musically, and to have a place that they can go to pursue their dreams.

I have felt so lost at times in this area! There are very few places that one can go, to do this. How wonderful it would be to be able to provide such an atmosphere, and help the youth of today, to nuture their dreams!!
How wonderful it would be, if we could give a young person the encouragement to grow, and reach higher than ever before, and to NEVER GIVE UP ON THEIR DREAMS!!

There are some people in life, that when you meet them, you KNOW that youwill never forget them.

One of those people for me is the distinguished, elegant, warm and genuine CELINE DION. That woman is amazing!!! Her music, simply drips with LOVE, and everything wonderful. And when this girl sings, SHE GIVES IT HER ALL! A tribute to her most recent release, "All the way"

She is a woman of integrity, character, and with SO much love to give! Her heart is so full of compassion, kindness and love, YOU JUST CAN'T HELP BUT LOVE HER BACK!!

It was an absolute miracle, that we were able to attend her concert in Indianapolis, March 31, 1999.
My wife and I celebrated our 14th wedding anniversary, on the 8th March.

This year however, was so much different. I had suffered a severe spinal injury, and underwent two very scary, very painful operations to correct the damage. Neither had worked, and I could barely walk, sit, or stand. Also was the fact that I had been out of work for so very long, we REALLY did not have the money to much of anything.

When I heard that Celine was doing a concert so close to us, I didn't tell my wife, I just started praying, and hoping that I could give the most important person in my life, a gift that she would remember for the rest of her life.

You see, my wife is the epitomy of love. She has stood beside me through all of this pain, and uncertainty. When I couldn't count on tomorrow, I could count on her being there if I could open my eyes in the morning.
She has helped me "All the way". Just as Celine has been a strength for Renee through his recent bout with cancer. That is the love that my wife and I share!

Somehow, ( I am still not sure how ), we were able to get tickets the day OF the concert, and be there on time, for one of the most memorable experiences of our lives.

I hardly felt the pain that night, as I watched the light in Melanie's eyes, glow ever so brightly.
She came away, re-fueled and happy. Which after all the she had been through, was so desperately what she needed. (thank you Celine!)

Every song that she sings, touches our heart. I can't seem to listen to a single song that she sings, without crying, and thinking of how Melanie, my wife, is everything to me.

We have a lot of favorite songs, and you sing them all Celine!

Because you loved me

The Power of love

Love can move mountains

I'm your Angel

All the way

and one very special song that has helped me with the death of my grandfather, "Fly".

If you aren't familiar with this incredible woman, or her music, first I have to ask, "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?" :-)
and then I must say, you have to hear all of her CD's, so GO GET THEM!

Celine, if you ever read this, from our family to yours,

"You have blessed us so much! You have en-riched our lives beyond words, and we love you so much! Thank you for sharing your gift of song and love with the world"

These are some of my favorite artists, and those who inspire me most,

God bless you all, and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!
