Congratulations What a wonderful milestone to reach, 15 years!! Congratulations, and keep the inspiration coming. I've been a fan since the first time I heard one of your songs, and I am grateful to the friend who played it for me. You and your music have been with me through a great deal of ups and downs, and still, my favorite thing to do to relax is to turn out all the lights, light a few candles, put on one of your CDs, and lay on the floor, just letting the mood take over. Thank you for some wonderful memories, and I look forward to many more to come!! Submitted By: Theresa Wilder

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU JIM!!!!!!!!! What an inspiration you have been in my life & now my husbands too. You have brought me back from my stroke. All I heard in my head while recovering was your music playing over & over again. Valentine & the Gift were the 2 songs that kept me going. And when you came for the Christmas in the City with John Trones, is when I met you after the concert. I had told you & you had asked me, how am I doing & WOW! We made each other happy to see one another once again. Thank you for making such beautiful music, Jim. I will keep buying your music, & keep coming to see you in concert. Love you with all of my heart! Submitted By: Vicky Albarracin

Congratulations! Hi Jim! Well, I have to admit that I remember enjoying watching you on "The Morning Exchange" with Fred Griffith, when you made guest appearances! So, even back then I was "hooked" on you and your music. I can have the worst day, put on your music and feel completely and totally better. And, even on my best days, I can feel even happier, just by listening to you. You have an amazing gift! Thank you for sharing your talent with the world. Congratulations on 15 years!
