Notes
Dear Friends,
Thank you for your continued support. It is you that have encouraged me, along with my patient and loving husband Freddy, to keep singing and yodelling my way thru life.
Buddy Gale and Lynn Russwurm, Thank you for allowing me to put music to your ‘words’, and to John and Lynda for pulling this all together.
God Bless,
Shirley Field
