Your package arrived this afternoon (24 Dec) just in time for Christmas.

And thanks so very much for your christmas gift – I loved the contents of the specially produced CD.

O Holy Night is my FAVOURITE carol …..   (I am listening to it now as I send this email)

Its very moving to know that all the children in the hospitals of the ten cities will be comforted as they listen to the CD.. its a wonderful idea from Jeff.

Thank you also for sharing your talent so that the joy can be multiplied many times over to bless others.    The stories are great and I enjoy the humour in the exchange between Jeffrey and Mrs Claus.

I love track 6 – the squirrel – really funny ….. the person behind his voice is doing a fantastic job !!!   The whole team of ‘voices’ for the stories really got into the characters….

I’m really glad to have the pleasure of listening to the CD…. its so meaningful.  Thanks for making my Christmas a happier one.

Happy holidays and a fantabulous 2010 to you.

Your friend, Ester

Hi Jeff,

Thank you again for including me each year in Holiday Magic, it is an amazing project. I had such a wonderful time being Santa Claus and going room to room with the little red wagon full of cds. I mentioned your name to each family who received a cd and they all seemed so appreciative.

I was their over 5 hours since it was necessary to sing jingle bells and Rudolf in each room per the request of the kids. I also got a chance to sing May There Always Be A Sunshine many times too and that went over so wonderfully.

You once again have brightened the days of hundreds of kids and eased the stress a little for the parents, great job.

It is always a pleasure working with you. Happy Holidays and to the best year yet to come.

Peace,

Karl

Thank YOU Karl!  This puts a smile on my face!
