All,
To start off, I'm not the biggest fan of God music. That being said, I want you to know that Aunt Nancy put on a SPECTACULAR hosting job for tonight's John Michael Talbot show. She single-handily organized the show, which turned out to be a near capacity audience. The proceeds all going toward the Luke Roach Scholarship foundation.
JMT rocked the church! He ranged from bluegrass to Stevie Ray Vaughan. He really is a great musician. He had two backup guitarists, a bassist, and another on percussions. He played the guitar, electric guitar, and the banjo. Although I’m not hitting the road as a groupie, I did appreciate seeing a bit of talent come through the Tri-Cities, and Aunt Nancy made it happen!
For those of you that were able to make it, Tri-City Prep current and future students thank you. If you weren’t able to make it, you can still send your $25 admission (or whatever you feel) to:
Luke Roach Scholarship
521 N. Rd 40
99301
This wasn’t intended to be a solicitation, but the contribution can never hurt! It was a very emotional show for me because I think Luke would have been a big fan. He really appreciated good music, and would have been very humble to see how many people contributed to his cause. I think it was an inspiration to all. We should remember how blessed we are to have him as a part of our lives, as well as all those among us that are still able to contribute to this “Perpetual Roach Reunion”!
Let’s all take a minute to think of our cousin/brother/nephew/son, and smile because although life can bring us hardships, it is also a daily blessing that we all need to remember.

Nicely said Joe. And great job Nancy!
Thanks Joe and Mom. I really wish I could have been there.
Were there any tapers in the audience?
Joe, such true words re last night. It was a great production, much better than the last! I appreciate your kind words for NMR. She delivered again. Thanks for your support through the planning & execution phase as well.
Thanks Uncle Mike, but with this event, no one else should take credit but NMR! It was her desire to get this to work that made ~400 folks really get in touch with their religious side via great music.
I think she did an amazing job!
