The level just kept building throughout your performance. I haven't been to one of your shows, where the energy level bounced within the Kerr Center among the audience like that. It was such a neat feeling. You and Dolan were on such a roll...must have been your yellow shirt! Thanks for the laughter and smiles, Marshall. Arizona Sunshine & Smiles." - A Fan

2/15/05 - "Saw you on Channel 8 Horizon tonight and want you to know how deeply you are appreciated.  You made my Valentine's Day! Thank you for this day and for so many lovely thoughts and memories about Arizona.  I didn't think I could love another place (I'm from Dallas, and the variety of the 'piney' woods of deep East Texas and that amazing Big Thicket giving away to the semi-tropical Gulf Coast) but you have surely caused me to love Arizona. Thank you for replacing the loneliness in my heart with a new love laced with happy Irish humor." - Sunny
