Dear Gina,
I want you to know that you and the band were OUTSTANDING! I cannot tell you how many people came up to me to express how great of a singer you are, and how much they enjoyed the group.
It is performances like that, that help ensure the success of the event. Well done!! I hope to work with you again in the near future.
I wish you were in Austin. I would have had you and the group perform for both of my children’s weddings last year. You truly have a gift.
Take care and all the best,
Jan

Hi Gina,
Wow! What a wonderful night with you at Lakeside Casino in Osceola!
You were so perfect for our part.
Over 200 people laughed, sang along with you and loved it when you went into the crowd
and sang to the men and ladies.
Our good friends, that you acknowledged during your performance,
were the couple who had been married the longest.
They still talk about that night!
I know we will see each other soon!

Gina, words cannot describe how moved your voice made Julie and I feel today.
I don't know what an Angels voice sounds like, but I imagine it would sound exactly like you did today!
Thank you for making my Grandma's service so special, you have an incredible gift!
Love,
Joe & Julie Woods

Hi Gina,
Very positive comments and a great big thanks to you and Ben. Our 50th Class Reunion turned out very well and you were a major part of its success.
Thanks a million and our paths will cross again!

Hi Gina!
I have started an email to you a couple of times, but just can't find the words to express ...something. I came to see "Souvenir" at Noce expecting to be entertained, but I did not realize how touched I would be. Your portrayal of Florence was just beautiful. You took her seriously so the audience did too. There were times it was so hysterical but even in the 'bad' singing and the perfectly placed maraca shaking we loved her! I guess great art has the power to move us and encourage us and inspire us. You and Max Wellman do this and more with this show ...so thank you for giving so much of yourself to create a place of beauty and hope in a world that desperately needs it.
With that said, and so you don't become worried I am a stalker, i will tell you I will be back one and possibly two times this weekend. My big mouth can't stop talking about it and it also can't say no when someone says...that sounds great...will you see it again and go with me? Why yes, yes I will. 😄

Thank you.

Gina.....had to tell you this....When we were attending the Playhouse Countdown to 100 years celebration.....a lady from here said hearing you sing MEMORIES from Cats was worth the price of admission! And our neighbor next door to us said her husband didn't really want to go, would rather sit in front of the TV, but he absolutely loved it....and she said you were "broadway quality".....was glad to say you were our friend and that I totally agreed with her!

Judy K. Reha reviewed Gina Gedler — 5 star
Saw the fabulous production of "Souvenir" tonight and was blown away...Meryl Streep has nothing on our own Gina Gedler! Max Wellman was also terrific...laughter and tears in abundance!

Gina,
We had the time of our lives!! Thank you, thank you, thank you for playing. I think it's safe to say you were a huge hit!
I can assure you we'll cross paths again, as we will be making a trip to DM to a show or many... Tammie is hoping you have a disco show coming up, (she is a disco queen). We've had so many people rave about you and the guys. I'm guessing there might be a few that will go to Johnny's next Summer if you're going to be on the patio.
Thank you too for embarrassing "Peckman", he loved it!
Thanks Again,
Joel and Tammie 💍💍

Vonnie Jobe recommends Gina Gedler.
Her voice is priceless. She is very talented in any character you want her to play. She has the ability to captivate any audience. I would recommend her for singing and acting. I mostly enjoy her when she is being comical like Carol Burnett.
********************************************************************************************************************************
“One of the good things about Gina is that she not only connects with the audience, she also really connects with the music, which makes her a true musician.”
********************************************************************************************************************************
Thank you Gina!!!!!!! You made so many people happy. Your singing is beautiful to listen to and a few were surprised by the comedic abilities you have. Especially the fiancée of the younger gentleman you were getting acquainted with.
It was all in good fun and so many families are scattered now days they can get pretty lonely.
We appreciate all the joy you bring. We wish you all the best!
Rená and the JP gang.

Gina! We received much positive feedback in regards to the music during the cocktail hour prior to the program starting. Folks loved it!!
Thank you to you and your musicians for sharing your talents with us and making the evening a success!
