I'd like to highly recommend Teresa Irish's A Thousand letters Home program.

 

Teresa Irish presented her "Thousand Letters Home" program at Ida Branch
Library on March 28th, 2016. As so many reviewers have already stated Teresa
Irish is a highly skillful and engaging storyteller. The audience at my
library was spellbound.  I couldn't believe how a group of more than 60
people could be so quiet they listened with rapt attention to Teresa. You
could hear a pin drop! She is one of the most engaging speakers I've had the
pleasure of hosting at my library and hearing for myself. Teresa has a
beautiful singing voice and serenaded us a cappella with war era songs from
Waltz Time and Hit Parade. So many from the audience sang along too! I found
her story to be both informative and uplifting. She recognizes and honors
attendees who are serving or have served in the American armed forces. You
can't help but feel good after hearing Teresa speak! 

 

Her website describes her event far better than I am able.

"A unique, engaging and most memorable program! 
In her accompanying presentation of "The Journey of the Letters," Teresa
takes audiences on an inspirational and life-affirming journey. Her
skillful, entertaining, and captivating storytelling blends humor and
history to leave audiences laughing, crying, reminiscing and reflective.
Teresa has been featured at over 200 venues and has appeared on ABC News,
NPR, Veterans' Radio, Frontlines of Freedom, Military Author Radio, and the
nationally syndicated National Defense radio show. A heartfelt tribute to
America's history, freedoms, and family values, as well as a call to
citizenship in today's world, Teresa's presentation reaches across
generations with a little something for everyone. This is for the children,
grandchildren, and future descendants of all veterans. This is for all
Americans.Lest we forget."
