Independence Day isn't just a day off from work; it's a celebration of our Republic's founding principles. This short explores the bravery of the men and women in 1776 who risked everything for their freedom and ours. Their dedication to the timeless truths in the Declaration of Independence should be cherished and defended every day. Join us as we honor their legacy and remember the importance of teaching future generations about our ongoing fight to preserve freedom. As Thomas Jefferson said, "The natural progress of things is for liberty to yield and government to gain ground." Let's make every day Independence Day by upholding these ideals.

“Angels in White” celebrates nurses and is dedicated to the memory of Susan Carol Bolack Sulier, L.P.N. Nurses are often under-appreciated. Whether male or female, they are a special breed, worthy of our praise. I wrote this song in August of 2019 for a friend of mine who had lost his wife to cancer the year before. I didn't receive any money... I just wanted this song and lyric video to be a celebration of her life and a “thank you” to all nurses to show how much we appreciate what they do and to encourage others to consider entering this noble field. Please note that although the song is registered and has been submitted for release, it is not yet available on streaming platforms or for download as it is still being processed. I simply didn't want to delay getting the video out to nurses and all healthcare workers while they are going through so much for us. Recording was complete just before the COVID-19 pandemic and it was released as nurses were being called on at its height.
