"We really enjoyed your program. I speak for myself, being a native Oklahoman by birth and now a resident of Ohio, and for my Dad, Everett Butler (age 93), who is a life-long Woodward County Oklahoman who is visiting us, and for my wife Agnes, a North Carolina native of Cherokee lineage. Thanks for excellently and expertly keeping the memory and spirit of Will Rogers alive."
