I don't normally post messages like this but I will do whatever I can to help my friend Carissa.
Someone very special to me is up for awards and it would mean a lot to me to see her win. She is 16yo Carissa Amberly of Longview, TX. She is a country music singer and has been nominated for the following in the 2008 Texas Music Awards:
"Female Vocalist of the Year"
"Record of the Year"- "Some Heroes Don't Come Back"
Her song Some Heroes Don't Come Back is a very powerful song that pays tribute to the heroes that have gave and will give their lives in the line of duty. Carissa has a lot of talent and deserves these awards.
The first time I was exposed to her was after the passing of Capt. Kevin Williams and Firefighter Austin Cheek who gave their lives in the line of duty. She sang at the combined memorial. I didn't pay much attention then because I was in a lot of pain as I was there when the incident happened. The second time I was exposed to her was at the East Texas State Fair in Tyler, TX where she gave a performance. She WOWed me! Not many singers can do that.
