Letters

Dearest Paul, Gene, Eric and Tommy, My husband has been a huge KISS fan since he was a young boy and got a chance to meet the original KISS members backstage without their face paint. He fondly remembers Gene telling him not to tell his classmates what they looked like without their makeup because his classmates would not believe him anyway but of course, as a little boy, he was so excited and proud and told everyone he knew that he met KISS! : ) My husband's family also lived not too far from Gene's beloved mother, Florence before they eventually moved to Florida. The hubby has been to A LOT of KISS concerts and his last one, scheduled years ago at The Ford Amphitheatre in Tampa, was cancelled because Gene got sick. He has never been to a KISS concert eversince but still buys all the CDs and DVDs (or I buy them for him as presents for special occasions). We would like to thank KISS for always supporting our unsung heroes. Our WOUNDED WARRIORS. Your effort and generosity don't go unappreciated. More power to KISS and we hope to catch one of your shows in Florida in the near future. Sincerely, A U.S. Veteran's wife
