BELVIDERE, TENN.
Love and blessings to you,
Anna Samons - Florida
I think that you are such an amazing woman you inspire me in so many ways! I love to watch you on dancing with the stars, it proves that you can do anything! You are the ultimate entertainer! You are doing such a great job and i wish you the best but most of all i am glad you are having fun! You also look fabulous(ballroom does that to ya)! Thank you for always keeping your standards high I really respect you for that and so does the rest of my family and most of the people I know. I have or actually still am growing up with you and your family, seeing as i am only 19, and I have nothing but love and respect for your amazing talents and standards! Take care of yourself and that beautiful family of yours!
God Bless,
Jamie-Utah

You are a very strong LDS woman.And a strong business woman. I am also LDS, and you really inspire me and our faith.
You are loved in this world. God Bless You
I have been an Osmond fan forevery! My friend and I drove 4 hours a couple years ago to a cd signing with Donny! He was so nice, and we got a hug! I also made into his cookbook!!! We are coming to Effingham to see you. I wish I had your courage and strength. God Bless You. You seem so happy. I hope to find that courage.
I saw you and your family today on Oprah, You and your family are very special you have such a sincere Laugh and way about you My Sympathy to you and your family your Father seemed like a Wonderful man and it reflects on the way you and your whole family have turned out. Thank you for all your Courage you make me feel like I could get a better grip on my life I need to :) Thanks again.
us put our own lives in perspective. I am LDS,
not active, but ironically live the principles.
My husband is agnostic, and unlike the norm, watched
the show tonight because of the infinity I felt
in watching what I knew was true family unity
interwoven by principles taught that are so
uniquely simple yet profound. I am so proud of
you all, and my husband was touched I felt by
your generous spirits, humility, love for each
other, and you just were blessed to have the close
knit families we always dreamed of having but
weren't blessed with. I suppose you became our
surrogate family, and inspire. It was a treat.
You are all beautiful, and it is obvious your
parents created a home filled with love. God
bless you for holding to standards in spite of
everyday challenges. You give us hope. And a
desire to let that spirit once again lead the
way. Our children are such blessings, and look at
you....I raised two alone, and it was a feat, and
I see your family and wish I could have had what
you have. BLESS YOU ALL...Oprah too!
Best of luck to you.
Maria
All of the Osmonds are amazing in my book, but Des. News, some of it's NOT NEWS!
They are on the most popular list because people are searching them out because of the Dancing with the Stars publicity.
Most popular lets you know what people are reading, not what is news or newsworthy
We love you!
I prefer Marie Osmond to Julie B. Beck, Silvia H. Allred, or Barbara Thompson any day!
mentions in the Energy Solutions Arena. Although it was not a sell out audience, there were lots of people there. Even special recognition was made to George Osmond, (the family's father) who was in the back of the auditorium.
It was a Great Show!! (A Great Christmas Show)!!
Thanks to Marie and Friends and Family!!!
Loved you since childhood ....and we did grow up together! I'm a young 49, next time you're in Chicago I'll take you to Mom's for dinner!My prayers are with you, lost my father too, no words are adequate for that loss. But remember the tears will soon be replaced with memories. I know...my Mom and I find ourselves laughing now, & I can imagine how many hilarious memories you will all of a sudden remember! God Bless, Sincerely, Gail
I find you an inspiration as I see you juggling your family life with your professional life. I only pray that you find the balance in it all for yourself, because as I listen to the media, I sense the pressure they place upon you to be "perfect". We all know that isn't how life works. Bumps, bruises, tears, joys and at the end of the day we are simply just who we are. I just wanted you to know that who you are is enough. Take care. You are a joy.
KEEP DANCING!
I loved seeing you on Dancing with the stars.
you are an inspiration and fantastic role mdel for women.
last year we saw Donny here in Australia and we would love to see you perform here as well. I hope that at some stage you can fit a tour into your busy schedule.
May you and your family always be blessed
Anna
Please, if I may ask. Ms. Osmond has a great talent and has accomplished much in her life. And no doubt will accomplish more.
But has she ever wanted to be a stay-home wife and mom, instead of an entertainer, and has she ever had the choice to do so?
