    So happy to see your baby and if I was a betting person...he will also be a great musician. I have all your videos in a folder and play then on a regular basis. I am 73 years old now, but hopefully, someday soon, I can come over and watch and listen to you play in person. Right now, this is my dream. Thank you so much for the beautiful music.

    Gert, you remembered me how excited I was in further time on a piano and my keyboard, later on at the organ in my church. Every time working with an instrument was a lucky time. After seeing lots of videos from you I re-started to practice at my old keyboard, and I hope in some time I will have the second chance to play at my favorite organ again. Thank you very much for your motivation - for bringing back the motivation to me. All good wishes for you and your family.

    Gert the first time I listened to one of your videos, as I watched you play I told me wife, "This man has been touched by God. The emotion you put into your music is so deep and profound and I think how God is using you to bring joy to millions of viewers. Your little boy is angelic and looks so much like you at that age. He is absolutely precious. God be with you always and continue playing your music for in doing so you are blessing those of us who can't play but who receive blessing when we listen to you.

    Gert this video is particularly welcome. I have wondered at Thomas and how he is growing since you announced his birth on an earlier video. You, Marjolean, and the baby express the embodiment of a lovely Christian family. The inclusion of your grandfather as the source of your commitment to organ performance (and practice) explains well the passion you have inherited through his nurturing and instilling to you those organ skills. It is always a joy to see you perform, sharing your love, values, and high musical standards. Thank you and bless you and those you love.

    This was perfect timing, to learn more of you and your family while staying inside! I absolutely LOVE your organ music, the King of Instruments, and play them again and again. If I paid you 5 cents for every time I played one of your pieces, you would be nearing the status of Millionaire. And now to see that you and your family are well and happy gives me hope for the future and helps reassure all of us that all will be well as we move through this difficult time together. May God bless you and your family and keep you "in the palm of His hands."
