In response to Alison's letter from Iowa:
Wow, I heard it on the radio when you all read it. But then I went to your site and I saw you had it there, and there was ALOT more to it! What you read on air was good, but it didn't really do the letter justice, as you really need to read it all. It's just so amazing and beautiful. I think it's so great that music can have that effect on people. But, from what I got, it was a lot more than the music. I think Kellie really just reached in and grabbed her. Kellie herself really had the big impact, I think. That is just what I got from the letter. I saw her dream is to meet (Kellie), and I really hope one day she gets that chance. It might be just what she needs for closure in that part of her life. I speak from...well, a lot of it is experience, I know where she is coming from. She really touched me with that letter. It was hard to read it with tears in my eyes. I just wanted to say thank you all for sharing her letter with us. Best -- Kathy
