To the whole Osmond family my regards and condolences. Thank you for your courage to make a difference.
I know that he will be happy to be with Olive again and that they can both look on together now at the family that they have produced. They will always be remembered in our hearts.
As I have been, you are all truly belssed to have a family that believes in this and while words cannot express or relieve the pain you are feeling, the love you have will heal. God Bless.
and now the mantle has been passed to next generation of Osmond's following the death of your Father . In a world full of fear and sorrow your family shines forth as a beacon of light , hope and faith. Honoring your parents legacy will be easy because of how you have been taught . Plan a reunion now every year on the Anniversary of your parents , the world needs more Osmond's .. God Speed
and God be with you till you meet with them again..
As a young girl my walls were plastered with the Osmonds faces. At age 13 I joined the church with my father.
Now as a wife and mother of four I rejoice in the rightous choices my children are making with their lives. The Osmonds examples changed the course of my life forever.
I once showed up at the Osmond home with an invitation for Jay to attend a BYU preference dance with me. Father Osmond graciously accepted the invitation from me and said the boys were on tour in Asia. He then said, "if I weren't married, I would go with you." What a kind, good man.
I ache for you but rejoice with you in the knowledge that you have of forever families.
Time is but a moment, eternity is forever.
The Osmonds� 8-bar intro into the song �Love Me,� with Donny singing lead, is a great exhibition of heavy guitars. Heavy, smokin' melodic guitar distortion, I love it. Bought the tune on a 45 rpm vinyl that I still own. Those eight bars have made a significant musical contribution to my understanding of rock music. Everybody needs to hear the call...some hear it in the song of the birds, some hear it in the foghorn, and some hear it in rock music. The Osmonds have helped me there.
George Harrison once said something along the lines of, �The search for most things can wait, but the search for God cannot wait.� The Osmonds, under George's and Olive's leadership, appear to have understood this also.
Rest in peace, George Osmond, influential man.
Tears flow at loss, I know well with my Dear Mum and Dad, but they are often tears of Joy for the Reward they have no received.
You are all in my Prayers, I grew up with you and you have given me great joy, inspiration and strength.

George's children are an inspiration to us all and their parents instilled such great values in them. Are they perfect? No one is, but the love and respect they have for each other is so evident. If only we could all have this special bond. I have never seen the Osmond's in person, but I hope to one day. I have followed your careers and every time I see you, it puts a smile on my face. God Bless all of you - you are truly unique.
