I visit resthomes since my mother used to be in one
and I know how these people must enjoy the music Michael Ballam brings to them and how much they
appreciate him. He must appear as an angel to them
because he cares enough to share of his time and talent with them.

About 30 years ago, I was driving my very ill, husband, 180 miles each way, to hospitals. He would lay in the back seat, and I would play Michael's tapes as I drove. Not only was it therapudic, but we simply loved the messages and the music. My husband died in 1992, but I have wonderful memories of sharing Michael's music with him. Since then I've been able to attend Michael's work shops at the BYU music festivals. I loved every one of them. Michael is doing the Lord's work through his music.
