Hi Ron -

I just wanted to let you know that we were very happy with how the song turned out
and the performance of Hairy Fairy Godmother.  I would definitely use your services
again and would refer people to you.

Thank you. 
-- T. Venturnio - (Moon Twp, PA)


Hi Ron,  Thanks again for Saturday.  You were fantastic!!  Everyone really enjoyed it and commented on how great you were.  They liked the "Hairy Fairy Godmother" character.  It was a perfect performance both the adults and kids there and especially for the birthday guy. 
 
Thanks for being flexible with our changes in time and patient while waiting for the neighbors to run over.  I hope the neighbor's kids didn't harrass you too much as you were trying to leave!!
 
I will definitely recommend you to others.
 
Thanks again, -- K. McClintock-LeBeau - (Shadyside, PA)
 
 
"Ron,  I wanted to thank you again for all of your creative efforts in making Susan's birthday surprise a terrific success! She was delighted to receive such a neat and unique gift (after she got over the initial shock) that she will remember for years to come! The personalized song, cake, cookie, pictures, balloons, etc. were perfect!

Thanks again! It was a pleasure working with you and I really appreciate the personal attention in making the occasion go off without a hitch!  Best regards."

" Hi Ron, Just wanted to thank you for your Hairy Fairy Godmother delivery! My friends absolutely loved it, and couldn't stop laughing! They said you also had a surprisingly good voice for a singing gorilla! You were a huge hit. Thank you for helping us pull this off so quickly, and so well! We can't wait till we have another excuse to send a singing telegram! It was a pleasure working with you."  -- D. Hack - (New York)

                                               

"Hi Ron, I just wanted to thank you again so much for dressing up as the Hairy Fairy Godmother for my mother, Rhonda's, birthday! I just got done looking at the pictures and I haven't seen my mom smile like that for awhile now! Its hard to surprise her and get her excited and that's what today was all about! What you guys do is so unique and fun and I'm sure your job never gets boring! I have already told a lot of people about Brooks Entertainment, and I can promise you will be hearing from me again! Thanks Again!"

"We just wanted to tell you thank you so much for the unforgetable, hysterical, just amazing telegram!!!  You are truly talented.  Everyone is still talking about you.  Thank you again, you're the best!" -- G. Haugh - (Saxonburg, PA)

 

"Ron,  Many thanks for making my sister's New Year's Afternoon party a great success.  She never expected a housecall at that time, especially since her 75th birthday was December 30th.  Dr. Bewell was very tastefully hilarious, you did a fantastic job.  Our party group is still talking about it.  Ann was always the pillar of strength in our family, and when you sang the last song for her, it made her puddle up.  Thank you for everything and God speed you with many more successes in the future."
-- M. Kreitzer (Blawnox, PA)
 
 
"Hi Ron!  A quick note to let you know that I just spoke to my brother, Frank, and he raved about your performance Saturday night.  He loved your singing, the balloons (thank you for getting a 75 one), your outfit, the gold spewing from the balloons he burst and your hug as well.  My brother, Jim, and my niece, Molly, sent me emails reiterating Frank's opinion of the job that you did.  Thank you for making my brother's 75th so special and one that he shall never forget nor anyone else who was present at the party.  Happy St. Patrick's Day!  Regards"  -- R. Jay (Horseshoe Bay, TX)
 
 
"I just wanted to take the opportunity to once again thank you for putting smiles on the entire party's faces but more importantly the smile that was on Lori's face. You did a great job and I really appreciate your coming out on Independance Day.  I hope you enjoyed the Barbershop Webcast! Maybe sometime we will see you at St. Luke (not as Norm the Nerd)." -- K. Rockwell (Penn Hills, PA)

"I just wanted to thank you for coming to Shadyside Academy yesterday. Everyone is still raving about it, and I know Nancy liked it! I think you might get a lot more calls in the near future for similar invites. Thanks for everything."
-- M. Goldstein - Senior (Shadyside Academy, Fox Chapel, PA)
 

"Your telegram and video for my mother and dad's 50th wedding anniversary were outstanding.  The "Godfather's" intro was fun to watch as well!  Keep up your fine work!"  -- D. Vortolomei, Albuquerque, MN


"Thank you so much for putting such a big smile on my husband’s face.  He totally bought the Police Officer idea.  He keeps telling me that he owes me one.  The certificate and balloons were an added bonus.  I’m just sorry that I missed it.  You truly set the tone for a blissful birthday.  Thanks for everything."

 "I have to say "WOW"!  That was the best!  I just hung up the phone with Paula and I am still laughing.  You're incredible!  I was so impressed with how you personalized the song. I can't thank you enough! -- N. Velez (Washington DC)

"I just wanted to thank you for a fine performance yesterday at Don Pablo's. My son was totally taken by surprise, which is what I set out to do. The song was great, and I would like to know if you could send me a copy. Again, thank you so much, and I will advertise you to everybody I know."  -- P. McCune (Pittsburgh, PA)

"Thanks! That was priceless. You made it so much more fun by acting the part, and the outfit was hilarious. This will be an Anniversary he'll never forget! Please feel free to use me as a reference anytime!"  -- B. Goetz (Cranberry Twp, PA)

 

"Thanks TONS for making Bill's evening so memorable. I wish we could have seen it! You surely do have a fun job. Here's what he wrote to us (below). Thanks again!"                    -- J. Lloyd (Pittsburgh, PA)

And from the recipient! "Well, you can imagine my shock when a huge hairy gorilla in a pink tutu showed up with balloons and candy and sang "Happy Birthday" to me! The restaurant staff and other patrons enjoyed it as well. You can bet I was thoroughly embarrassed -- and that's cool!  I am so sorry you could not be there, but you really helped make it a fun night. Thanks so much for your thoughtfulness. It was a great laugh! -- Bill"

 

"Just wanted to let you know that your singing telegrams last night were a big hit. I'm not sure who was more surprised,  Lindsay or Debbie. Everyone got a chuckle out of it, and some pictures for the photo album. One of Debbie's friends that was at the party had a surprise stripper cop for her 40th birthday, so Debbie was afraid that she was getting paid back. Had her a bit on edge! Thanks again.-- G. Younkins (Lower Burrell, PA)

 

"It's been almost a month since you surprised my girlfriend as the Love Bandit.  I could only imagine through the details she gave me as to what actually happened. But, even though I was not there to witness the Love Bandit, it will certainly be a memorable occasion for both Eryn and me.  She wasn't sure if someone was playing a joke on her or if it was my doing, but when she heard the song, When I Fall in Love,  she knew it was me because she sang that to me at a chorus concert. She was definitely embarrassed, but she still liked it and we talk about it all the time. Thanks again,"                                               -- A. Rich (Pittsburgh, PA)

"This is J. Johnson you did a performance for Alan for his 23rd birthday, and I wanted to say how thankful and grateful I am for what you did, your performance was spectacular, he absolutely loved it, and talked about it all day after you came. I wish I could of been there to see his face, I think things are going to work out between us, all in time, but I heard the way you put those lyrics together and I couldn't of done it better, thank you so much!!! I definitely will refer you to others and cant wait to do business with you again soon!!!   Thank you." -- J. Johnson (Pittsburgh, PA)


Hey Ron! C. Jacob here. Were your ears burning today? We've been talking about you all day! My friends & I have been burning up the phone lines calling each other, laughing ourselves sick about your spectacular performance at Primadonna's last night. Ron, you were wonderful. Who knew you were so multi-talented? A chicken, a nerd (pictured above) ... you do it all! If you only could have seen Fred's face when you came to deliver the 2nd singing telegram ... it was priceless. He couldn't believe we double-whammied him!  

Ron, I wanted to thank you so much for making our evening so much fun. It was better than I had hoped for. So many people were asking me for your phone number & website. I really hit it lucky when I called you. I'll definitely keep you in mind for upcoming events. 

It was a real pleasure speaking with you to set things up. You're fun, you're professional, & you're a dream to work with. Thank you again!" -- C. Jacob (Pittsburgh, P
A)

Dear Ron, I wanted to take a minute to thank you for the terrific job you did for our family's surprise for my father's 81st birthday!!

The personalized lyrics for his song were simply fantastic, and it was a big moral booster for my dad.  You really took the time to use a lot of the information we gave you and plug it into a song that was so clever and fun. My sisters and I couldn't have asked for anything more; it was everything we wanted!! The Hairy Fairy Godmother was too cute also-it made a blah day seem quite memorable for my father who has been ill and also grieving over the death of our mother. Thanks for taking the time to perk up my dad's spirits and make him feel special.  We will always look back fondly on his birthday "surprise". Even though we were not able to be there to share the day with him, we know it is a day he will long remember. We enjoyed the photographs and copy of his song that he emailed to us.

The best of luck with Brooks Entertainment in the future!! -- T. Barrow (Katy, TX) 


"Just wanted to thank you for a nice job.  Everyone remarked how much they enjoyed the song and the whole idea.  Dean Gallagher commented how much she liked it also.  You certainly got a lot of info into the song!  :)  Thanks for being prompt and again for a fine job."  -- L. Brusca (Pittsburgh, PA)


"I wanted to thank you so much for the wonderful performance as the "Hairy, Fairy Godmother" at our party!!!! You were hysterical, and everyone loved it, especially my brother!   He said afterwards that you did such a terrific job with the song about parts of his life -- said that was a tough one to do -- he was most impressed, as we all were.  And the waitresses thought you were a "hoot"! We would highly recommend you to anyone."

 (and again a month later)

"I again wanted to let you know how wonderfully entertaining and funny your performance was for my brother's 60th birthday on June 3 at Pines Tavern!!!!  We all thoroughly enjoyed it, and you did such a terrific job of writing the words for the song you sang about him.  It was great!!!!!  And a tough song to sing a cappella on top of that!! 


My Mom was hospitalized, and has been quite ill, so I haven't had a chance to write you.  She seems to be on the mend now.  She was amazed when I told her after your "gig" that you were the same person who sang to her on her 90th birthday!!  We were all totally impressed, and would highly recommend you to anyone!!! A huge thank you."                   -- C. Berg (Gibsonia, PA)


"I am sorry that this is so late in arriving, but I just wanted to say THANK YOU for making my father's 60th birthday such a special occasion!  The Grim Reaper was such a hit!  The personalized song and way that you delivered it made my father feel extra special on his special day...he still keeps talking about it.  You came highly recommended to me and I will certainly continue spreading the word about your excellent services.  Thanks again."  
-- M. McKinley (Pittsburgh, PA)

  

"My mother loved the song that you wrote. It was a great touch to their evening. What a small world (that you knew my mom personally). Thanks!!"  -- K. Walter (Lasell College Newton, MA)

"I wanted to thank you for making my Mother's birthday memorable. Everyone loved your song. Thank you for helping to make the evening so special."  -- T. Noschese (Henderson, NV)

 

"I just wanted to tell you THANK YOU for the great job you did at my brothers surprise party. I really surprised everyone with the Double Whammy! Thanks again for a great job. I think you might be getting more business. Everyone has been asking for your phone number."   -- B. Scarborough (Haymarket, VA)

"I am sending this email to let you know what a superb job your chicken did at our office today.  I was very impressed with how easily he got the unsuspecting victim into his act.  I am very pleased with your company and the job that was done today.  All of the co-workers that watched it were also very pleased and so impressed with the job your chicken did that they asked me for your page so they may get singing telegrams for different occasions for themselves. Once again, thank you very much for bringing a smile to our birthday girl’s/office manager’s face." -- J. Harris-Perry (Pittsburgh, PA)

Just wanted to let you know how much ALL of us appreciated what you did for our family this past Sunday with the Double Whammy. Dad was absolutely tickled with the extra song that you sang from him to Mom (I didn't realize how much he needed to look like a hero and you sure did it!). Mom said that the best part of our weekend was your surprise! She loves the personalized song you made up for her. The best part was that we accomplished our goal of giving them both a super memory. Thanks so much for the wonderful and very considerate job that you did for us. We'd have been more than happy to have you join us for the remainder of the celebration, not as an entertainer, but as a friend. I can't thank you enough. Everyone said what a great voice you had and that you are so caring. You had tears in your eyes along with the rest of us. You've now got new friends in Pennsylvania, Maine, Georgia, New York and Virginia. I'm certain that any one of us will recommend you in a heart beat."  -- K. Taylor (Partlow, Virginia)
