Dear Doug Holland and Branson Critic Fans: 

It is with deep heartfelt appreciation to have been chosen as the recipient of the Branson Critic “Best Performer” Award for 2004.

Not only is it a great honor to receive this award but an honor and privilege to be part of the Branson Entertainment Industry and community as a whole. However, in all honesty my success has been due largely by the ongoing daily support and backing of the many talented people that God has placed in my life. From my management team, promo designers, web designers and administrators, production crews, clothing designers, co-entertainers, my fan club, and the many, many fans and friends I have been so blessed to have; their contributions and undying support have made me the success I am today.

My fans from all over the world continue to support me daily through the good times and rough times and that is what continue to help me achieve and obtain my goals. Without them the possibility of positive achievements would be very limited. Therefore, I gladly accept this award in honor of all those who believe in me; friends, family, co-workers, community, and my greatest gift of all, my fans!

Sincerely,
