May all Randy Travis fans have a very happy, healthy and safe Thanksgiving. There is much to be thankful for. One grumpy old grandpa was asked by his grandson, "Poppa, aren't you thankful for anything?" Grumpy Poppa replied: "Nothing." The wise grandson said, "Well, at least today you ought to be thankful you're not a turkey!"
God bless,
Dr Don Givens

drgivens, cute - I guess we can add that to your other list of things to be thankful for.

I wish everyone a Happy thanksgiving this week and if you are traveling anywhere for the holidays, have safe travels.

See original blog, Up-dated. And everyone, Happy Thanksgiving!

Thank you dr givens for those true blessings that we have come to share regarding Randy, Elizabeth and all the like minded fans. Who have gathered here to share their experiences of being fans . And to become friends, as well as brothers and sisters in Christ.

Without a doubt we all have many personal things to be thankful for.
I'm thankful that I have been blessed with a loving family, a life with a healthy body, mind and spirit.

But most of all I am thankful for the sacrafice of our Lord and Savior on the cross. Who has suffered and atoned for my sins. For without his absolusions and forgiving grace, I would endure an after life of intolerable suffering.

May everyone have a happy, healthy and safe Thanksgiving .

And I am both thankful for this site and all of you who are here before me. I'm hopeful I will be accepted into your group as I only have positive things to say about Randy Travis and great respect and admiration for his talent; and for his kindness toward my tiny tot niece and nephew and their mom at a small roadside store/cafe in Norwood Missouri several years back. They were huge fans of Randy's, and he was so gentle and kind with them. You see, Randy sings country, and country is all my family knows and wants. Thank you for allowing me time to say hello and tell a bit about why I want to join in. Thanks to you all.

Hi and welcome to Randy's official site. We are always happy to have
another Randy fan come join in the fun we have here. There isn't a fan here who doesn't feel the same way you do about him. I've had the good fortune of having met Randy in person as well. I found him to be every thing you said of him. The kindness he shows, the patience he has (with fans) the genunie interest he takes in who you are (when meeting him) is a rareity among the rich and famous . I always found it amazing how his celebrity status never went to his head. Like it does so many in the entertainment world these days.

Besides being one of the TRUEST and PUREST country singers of all time. He is by far one of the most appreciative ,gracious and humble successful artists I've ever met. I've met many.

So glad to have you join us, here. Come back often.
hugs, Dee

Jamie, you hit it right on the head regarding all you said about Randy.

Jamie, Welcome to the Randy Travis fan website! We are happy to have you! Yes, we love saying positive things about country music's greatest singer - because there are so many wonderful things to say! (I have been fortunate enough to know Randy & Elizabeth personally for 19 years now, having been their church Minister on the island of Maui). And Randy wrote the Foreword to my 4th book - "Storms of Life".
Welcome to the RT fan club group. Glad to have you.
God bless,
Dr Don Givens
