You have shown many acts of kindness to me and to others. My most treasured memory was when you took the time to meet my parents, Glen and Wanda. They were so impressed with your sincerity and genuine act of concern. To them you were a normal, kind and caring individual, no celebrity status what so ever. After your conversation, you offered to pose for pictures, which my parents proudly display in their home. Afterward I found my dad with tears in his eyes. I went over and asked him if he was okay. He nodded yes and said, "Sis I now understand why Marie means so much to you! She is such a wonderful, kind and caring person. She took the time to talk to me and I'm just a normal old man." I embraced my dad (now we're both in tears) and told him that he was special and that I loved him dearly. My parents mean the world to me and for you to take the time from your busy schedule to meet them, truly meant a lot. I've followed the Osmond's' for years and my parents never understood the draw. Sometimes I think that they thought I was crazy! lol But now, after meeting you, they understood. Since then my parents have had the pleasure to meet you several other times. My dad in now 81 years young and my mom is 76. I truly love my parents, my dad is my world!! Thank you for blessing our lives.
With the launch of your doll line in 1991, I have become acquainted with MDF's and they are a unique group of caring and loving friends. A true family of sisters! For that I thank you!
Your dolls have brought such joy and love to not only me, but to my family and friends. My mom and Aunt Doris have collected dolls since their childhood and have added some of your collection to theirs. The beauty, quality, detailing and affordable prices make the decision of purchasing a Marie Osmond doll a no brain-er!!
Thank you Marie, for just being YOU!! Beauty, glamour, and style...you have it all!
"Happy 50th Birthday!"
