Had a great time singing a telegram for Cody White's birthday on Thanksgiving Day!
From his best buddy and who I had sung for a month earlier, and also from his amazing wife, Cody is the salt of the earth and truly loved by his family and friends.
Business has been picking up. Today I sang a telegram for the Operation Manger at the Oneta Power Plant in Coweta! A lot of his coworkers have been his friends for many years.

More often than not, my clients will request balloons. But since I'd be singing a medley of classic crooner tunes for the family matron, the recipient's daughter decided to go with flowers. I was excited to put together a dignified bouquet of white roses for her, wrapped in white tissue and tied together with a bow of silver ribbon (recommended by the florist).

Another singing telegram today. This time at Albert G's BBQ on Harvard! Happy birthday to Andrew Browning from his wife, Caitlin, and friends at Fowler Ford!
I love when I get to make a scene singing a telegram at a busy restaurant! The crowd doesn't always join in the singing but it's always a nice surprise when they do!
What fun it is to sing for such a special occasion as a needed vacation! These special friends work together at Drilling Equipment Resources and have known each other since the eighth grade!
Now they plan to visit Dublin, Ireland and see one of their daughters who'll be marching in the Saint Patrick's Day Parade! I really had fun singing a couple Irish classics and "bringin' me brogue" as part of this medley!

In the Singing Telegram business, repeat customers are a blessing, and my top-notch computer repair-man has hired me THREE TIMES...

Thank you for your loyalty and support, Gary! This was my first time singing a telegram to a toddler. I am happy that your daughter and granddaughter enjoyed my presentation!
A Singing Telegram for St. John Hospital's Administrative Assistant, ANNIE!
I was excited to find out her name was ANNIE because I could end my medley with the song ANNIE from the Broadway musical :)
Excited to see the prestigious Tulsa American Ballet from the inside and sing for Scott Black's 45th birthday! We are very similar in that we both grew-up directing neighborhood plays.
Currently I teach his niece voice lesson. His sister hired me to sing at the ballet... so I sang At The Ballet... ;)
Birthday Telegram for Lirio from Gary
Got a chance to sing in north Tulsa for a repeat customer, Gary Robison. He's a computer repairman who has saved my hard-drive from crashing - twice!

William's 91st Birthday Telegram
Who is Tom Lehrer you ask? Why he was a popular political satirist and comedic singer/song writer in the 50's and 60's.
Some people might find his material a little edgy for a birthday telegram - but the customer is always right - and the recipient is a long-time fan...
After his career as a performer, Tom Lehrer moved to my hometown in 1972 when he joined the faculty of the UC Santa Cruz, as a teacher of Mathematics as well as a class in musical theater. Tom Lehrer retired from teaching in 2001.
Russ' 50th Birthday Telegram
This marks my second out of four telegrams I'm singing this weekend!
This is my standard trio which starts-off with 'Today is Your Birthday' by the BEATLES, is followed by 'Celebration' by KOOL & the GANG, and finishes with 'Happy Birthday' in the style of ELVIS 🤩🤣😎
What a beautiful drive from Santa Cruz with my buddy videographer Billy Armi, over Mount Madonna and through Gilroy to San Martin. It is truly a blessing to be surrounded by so many lovely trees 🙏💚🎉
Singing Telegram for Mother of New Born Boy
I really appreciate everyone's song ideas for a newborn boy telegram! I decided to go with 'Baby Baby Baby' from the Broadway musical BABY!
Infused with 1980's cheesiness, BABY's probably not the most timeless of musicals, but the lyrics happen to fit my theme perfectly - and since I had less than a day to prepare, it was nice to find a song I was familiar with.
