Thanks Paul. Anytime you need help with a show, count on me. I'm always here to lend a hand. It's a pleasure. Thank you very much for the prayers. Scott has been a real blessing these past few months that I've known him, and he's helped me get through the days.
It was great seeing you a couple times in a week! Can't wait to see the rest of the photos from DC!
You look so wonderful standing there with Mrs. Barry Sanders, and Joey Spina. While wearing one of the baseball caps I hand painted just for YOU! You, the hardest working man in Motown!
