I wish you all manner of creative musings as your fingers float along.. Happy memories of hearing your drifting tones with the river flowing by on the legendary Delta Queen Steamboat. Alston Wolf
Looks great Jazzou! I listened to "You Are Mine" this morning -- one of my favorite songs. I also listened to your "In the Quite of Her Heart" which is beautiful. My favorite, of course, is Schubert's "Ave Maria." Thanks for starting my day off right!
Met you on the Delta Queen. Purchased both Of the Heart and Your first Ragtime CD. Have been checking out from time to time to see if you had recorded any new ones. Got lucky today. Thank you and keep going.

I enjoyed working with you at the Huntington Symphony Concert Saturday Night! Your playing is an inspiration, and thanks for the kind words about my "Songs of the River". I am looking forward to listening to all of your music!

Dear Thomas,
I heard you perform, ever so beautifully, this past Saturday morning at the Memorial Service for Robert "Bob" Sturgis. Your playing so many of Bob's favorite selections was such a beautiful tribute to this wonderful man who had touched so, so many lives. I have heard both he and Kitty speak so many times about you, and your great talent. To hear you in person was a treat for us all. Thank you so very much and may God bless you in all that you do sharing your great gift and musical talent with so many.
Sincerely,
Maureen Creasia
Hello Tom!
I've had your email about the new website for a while. Just this morning I explored the contents, and listened to many of the audio clips. Thanks for sharing all your God-given talent, with those fortunate enough to call you friend and many others to whom your music will touch in new ways of faith and encouragement. All my best to you and your family this Thanksgiving holiday, 2008.
Hi Tom
You may remember me from the Delta Queen a few years ago. My new CD and site are up at www.patrickandfriends.com, I will be in New England in Nov. possibly doing some concerts, would love to tell you more about it.
Congrats on the beautiful CDs
Thanks
Patrick
Always a great pleasure to bring Jazzou's unique upbeat sound back home with me from the riverboats. It helps to keep a very positive feeling in my heart and in my life. Thank you, Jazzou!
Keep thinking positive Tom! Your music is great for the soul... Keep up the great work! Your pal, Dave
I just discovered your music. I love it! Thank you so much. It's so hard to find "Catholic music"!
Thomas,
I received your CD's as a gift from Sam and Becky Rhoades. I have them in my car and am enjoying listening to them so very much. In fact, the other night I was stuck in traffic on a highway (due to a wreck) and I just put in your cd and rather than feeling upset about the long delay, instead I had the opportunity to pray my rosary and listen to your soothing and inspirational music. Thank you! Sincerely, Kathy Craft
It is my privilege to know you and consider you a friend of the highest order. Initial contact was the riverboat ragtime, but over the course of 20 years, I have found so much more in not just the music, but the wonderful depth of friendship. God has richly blessed you with talent and inclusion, and me with your steadfast example of Christian life. Thanks, so much for being you!
What beautiful music - just listened to the samples on the juke box. Would love to purchase some of the CD's - What a treat!
Your music has calmed my soul and brought me peace in harried moments. As a cantor at my church your music is a true prayer for me as I prepare for my ministry. God Bless.
Jean
Your music has richly blessed our lives! Thank you so very much! Norm and Patti Page<><
Jazzou and Diane - what a wonderful website! Diane, your meditations are very inspiring and Jazzou, I've listened to the clips from your CDs and I want them all! As always, your music is just great. Keep it up.
Hi Tom,
Just thinking of you - I listened to your new cd "In the Quiet of Her Heart" and loved it. I just ordered it. Hope things are going well with you and Diane.
Love,
Shirley
I really like your website and look forward to having more time to explore it!!
Take care of yourself and give Diane a hug for us!
You are in our thoughts and prayers!
Love, John & Susan
Jazzou - I am so glad you made these new CD'S. It's hard to believe you can go from ragtime to this!
I received several of your CDs as a gift from a friend. Am enjoying them. Thanks for sharing your talents.
Did get to meet your on the Delta Queen a few years ago.
The music on your CDs is very calming and reflective. It brought my mother peace and comfort while she was ill and is helping me with mine. Tom, you and Diane are beautiful people and I thank you for sharing your talents with us through the joy of music.
Our friend Jazzou has a unique and intimate touch on the piano that renders some of the finest meditation music anywhere. "In the Quiet of Her Heart" produces a quiet, reflective mood for long drives and can also set the tone for one's personal spiritual devotion. For any Catholic it will evoke memories of early morning Mass before school as well as recalling current music heard during Sunday worship. As a retired clergy I relish Jazzou's wonderful, calming, reflective, spirit inspiring meditation music. This album is a treasure. Jazzou, thank you so much!
Sam Rhoades, a friend of mine, introduced me to your CDs. They're wonderful! Excellent piano meditations.
Site looks great, Jazzou! Violet speaks of you often and fondly, so I feel that we are old friends.
Gonna miss you out there on the waterways. I am still laid up with the broken leg and looking forward to going back to towboating in the near future. Take care my friend and know that I enjoyed every moment we had together aboard the DQ.
We received your CD announcement today. I'm excited to see so many pieces that aren't usually included on a religious CD. I play so many of these pieces in my own church, that it will be fun to hear them in a different style. Thanks alot and God bless!
Can't wait to hear the new CD's. More comments after we receive them
Thank You for sharing your talent. Hope all is well.
We're excited about your new religious CD's and are looking forward to receiving all three!
We are looking forward to adding these two new CD's to our collection of your music. We love you in person on the DQ, but you are also a special person in our home life with your beautiful music. You have enriched our lives for many years, looking forward to meeting Diane.
BRAVO!!!...What wonderful additions these two CD's are....My two dozen copies of each are making their way to those who so enjoyed your 1st one...I know the Lord will continue to pour out His Blessings on you and Diane as you continue to minister to all of us with your beautiful music. ... Congratulations.
We have listened to your CD so often, I'm glad it doesn't wear out like a record. Been waiting for these new CD's. Hope to see you and Diane soon.
this is a really neat site. i can feel it emmitting peace, love and spirituality.
Thomas who?
Your music brought my mother so much pleasure and peace. Your friendship has given me the same.
The gift that you gave us can not be measured in numbers or words. Camden and I shall forever be richer for it, and we thank you. And as for your published music, it is engaging, beautiful, calming, moving and uplifting. Your “Of the Heart” CD spent more time in our CD player than any other. The CD actually outlived the player. And as for you, you are a man of depth, kindness, humor and humility. I am proud to have made your acquaintance.
I really appreciate Diane's meditations. I inherited my mom's dedication to St. Therese and my daughter loves her, also. We get a few roses tossed at us once in awhile....
Thank you both for the wonderful web site. I will be checking it often! Jackie T.
Great looking site -- way to go!!!!
I can't wait to own your next CDs. You put so much love and emotion into your piano works. Thank you for the joy you give so many.
Like Toots we are waiting to hear you latest releases
Can't wait to hear your latest releases. When I want to totally relax and let our Lord fill me with comfort and joy I listen to your CD, "Peaceful Music for Prayers Of the Heart."
I suppose I have purchased close to 3 dozen copies and have given them as gifts to everyone from the Bishop to the groundskeepper at my golf club. What wonderful gifts they do make. We are very much looking forward to the next efforts.
