Bill, great pictures! Thanks so much for your efforts. We enjoyed visiting with you and your lovely bride!

Bill, your pictures of the Winter Show is a great contribution to our club! We are very fortunate to have you and your wife among us! I'm so glad you were on the program playing your steel and those were wonderful words you said about Jim Kielblock. I sure missed him. He and his wife were always faithful to attend the events of our club. I'll never forget the first time I saw Jim roll his steel guitar into the Community Center. I really liked his ingenuity in figuring out how to make it work! I sure wish I had the talent to build something worthwhile. I can't even make a box. Thanks a lot, Bill, for all your helps that you give to our club!

Thanks so much Jerry, but right back at you !!! You officers are doing so great serving the members and working for the betterment and enjoyment of the Association. I want to mention that Miss Eva and I had lunch Sunday with Dino, Russ and Wayne Massengale. I was very impressed with the ideas and comments they all shared (particularly Wayne) on how the Association needs to be supported by The Branson Musicians and ideas for that endeavor. I understand Wayne and Charlie are getting their heads together in that respect. I'm looking for some good ideas and fun this summer ! Proud of all of you, big time !!

Looks like I missed a good one - I plan on being at the next show in July I think??

Great photos and a bunch of great friends from our steel guitar family.

Hope to see lots of you guys in Dallas next week.

Thank you guys so much for letting me be a part of such a great organization with such wonderful people. Every show is a special treat for me and this show was no exception. Our steel guitar players are some of the best people I have met in the music business.
