| AWARDS & THANK-YOU's  Beyond the awards and nice things people have said about me, what it's all about really is love. My heart reaches out to families and people who are ill or abused, in recovery, out of work, homeless, broke, in prison, orphans, broken families, elderly without family to help out, handicapped, vets, survivors, those who are hurting or struggling in different ways, going through hard times & heartaches & breaks & the folks who love them & want the best for them & show it by their love & support. The charity fundraising events that I DJ and MC have been & are so rewarding! Each wedding reception, birthday party, anniversary celebration, & special event is an opportunity to gather together & let the music & love surround each & every person so that people feel happy, encouraged, & inspired with blessings & healing for so many! I wish you faith & hope! But most of all, I wish you love! (John 3:16) If I have helped you to smile, have some fun, inspired you to sing or dance or tap your feet & clap your hands, then I've done my job & thank you so much for allowing me to be part of your special day! If I may have the opportunity to help you enjoy your special event coming up with wonderful music, great sound, some fun, smiles, & a heart that is into being the best I can be with God's help, I would love to be your DJ! LOVE, DJ CeeCee
"DJ CeeCee, Thank very much for doing such a great job at my mom's 70th birthday celebration! I am from Chandler, Arizona and planning a large party from out of state which can be a challenge. You made this process very easy. My sisters and all the guests and grandkids had a ball! You included all genres of music so that everyone had a great time. I truly appreciated your professionalism throughout the process and keeping me updated throughout the party. Thank you for making this birthday a memorable event for my family. I will certainly be a reference for you if anyone has any questions about using you for an event. I will absolutely use your services again. All The Best!"
Laurie Nelson
"Hi CeeCee - Thanks again for doing our New Years celebration! We enjoyed your music!" Captain Dennie
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, CeeCee! You did such a fantastic job at my daughter's wedding! Thank you for coming to our house and helping us plan the music, then all your updates and emails to make sure every song my daughter and her new husband wanted was played and was played in the proper place. You made sure we were completely prepared, you came early and made sure the sound system was perfect and you made the wedding and the reception everything we dreamed it would be. An outside wedding on the bay has got to be tough for a DeeJay, but you made it sparkle! You got everyone involved and having fun, and laughing and dancing. You have a great personality when you take the mike, (and without it too, of course), and we feel so blessed that you were there to make it such a special day.
You're a very classy lady. If you can ever use me for a reference, give them my email address, or my phone number... and I'll be glad to recommend you. Thanks again."
Linda Carson, ABC 7, Mother of the Bride, Sarasota, FL

"Thank you, we all had fun! I will definitely follow-up on your website with some positive comments." "... CeeCee did a wonderful job at my Dad's party. We had a 50's dance and most everyone dressed the part. It was fun! ... CeeCee was able to keep the party going while we made (another) food-run, and hardly anyone noticed we were gone! We did not have a whole lot of space for CeeCee to set up, but somehow she made it work. No complaints :-) She was professional and good at what she did. What more can you ask for!"
"Thank you again, CeeCee, for helping to make my Dad's party a success!"

There were many special activities, pony rides, games, hair & face painting, rides, weightlifting, family walk, races, puppet show with Dr. Nik & His Amazing Puppets, young dancers' recital given by the Revelle Dance Academy - who did a super job! And WOW to the Papa Schmitz Band, whose down-home-style of southern rock with a few tropical tunes just for Springfest brought cheers!

Music is my life, & I cannot stray very far from it - or I will never be what the Lord has created me to be. I am the best at what I do, I say, with a humble, sincere heart. When people are "called" for what it is they do for a living, they know it... & so does everybody else because it's not just work: It's a labor of love, & it's life!

I thank Jesus for everything I am in Him & everything I do because of Him. Thanks to my former agent & long-time friend, & thanks to my ex-husband who co-hosted many great events with me. We had some really great times & especially loved helping some great organizations & people at charitable events to benefit people who most needed a little smile. My very special thanks & "awards" go out to my daughter & my two grandsons & immediate family here & in heaven, as well as my church family & friends. I love you so much! & thank you, everyone, for your love & smiles & for everything you do to help others smile with your love! If you run into somebody who's grumpy, pray for them. Only Jesus can mend broken hearts & change a frown into a smile! But we all can help! Just smile! Love you, DJ CeeCee
