WOW! It is amazing how far we have come in less than a year. What started as only a dream quickly became a reality and the first awards show for the Christian Music Hall of Fame and Museum is now behind us and a part of Christian music history.
We are already looking to the future and an even better event next year.
What a true pleasure and blessing it was to be in the company of such great Christian and gospel singing and recording artists and legends such as Acappella, Les Beasley, Chris Christian, The Chuck Wagon Gang, David L. Cook, Jessy Dixon, Walter
Hawkins, Lou Wills Hildreth, The Imperials, The Jordanaires, David Meece, The Gospel Harmony Boys, Lulu Roman, Candi Stanton, Russ Taff, Kirk Talley, and others. Pat Boone and Steven Camp made special appearances via telephone and video. There was also an appearance
by ventriloquist Terry Fator from America’s Got Talent who recently signed a multi year contract with the Mirage Hotel Casino and Resort in Las Vegas. Terry also performed at Larry Norman’s 60th birthday party.
How tremendously exciting it is to see God working in the lives of such young performers as Caroline Keller, Jason Patchett and Donna Kay. We know we will be hearing much more from them as they continue to spread His word through their music.
Special video tributes were devoted to Larry Norman and Dottie Rambo as they were posthumously inducted. Debbie Beard, sister of Terry Fator, accepted the award for Larry Norman while Dottie’s grand-daughter, Destiny Rambo McGuire accepted for the
family and also performed. Marc Eckel performed his phenomenal splat experience, depicting the image of Christ with the words “Dottie's Home” at the bottom.
This years show was co-hosted by our National Spokesman, David L Cook and the legendary Lulu Roman and held at Cottonwood Creek Baptist Church in Allen, TX. We are deeply appreciative to Cottonwood Creek for providing such fine facilities
for our inaugural event.
Last but certainly not least, we would like to thank Daylon Ware with the IAMAS Corporation for his unwavering friendship, guidance and support during the past months. He has proven to be a true friend and mentor and we look forward to many years
of continued relations. We also ask that you to keep Daylon in your prayers. He was injured just two days prior to our show in a car accident while in Monaco helping organize the World Music Awards. His vehicle was struck by a drunk driver and
Daylon was air lifted to the hospital. It is only by God's grace his car went in to the side of the mountain and not over the edge. Although he sustained some broken ribs, broken sternum and injuries to his right arm, his injuries are not life
threatening and he is expected to make a full recovery.
