Dear Johnny aka Gemini,
Many thanks for your time and talent in bringing a family-friendly show to St. Ann.
Your ability to adjust your presentation to a family atmosphere, including young children, was masterful.
The magic and ventriloquist acts were most enjoyable. The addition of Steve Trevelise from 101.5 FM
and Mark Riccadonna made this show a huge success and a benefit to the K of C and the entire St. Ann community.
Your efforts at promotion and bringing your family members to assist are an example of your devotion to the Church.
The mission of bringing Mom and the Family to God’s House for the gift of laughter was indeed accomplished.
An impromptu visit by Bishop James F. Checcio, who blessed the food and the event, was truly special.
We look forward to working with you for future fundraising events.
Thanks again,
Respectfully, Fr Tom, Pastor Joe Cirillo, Grand Knight, Jim Janci, Event Coordinator. 5/14/2025

Father, I would like to thank you for your Hospitality,
your Kindness, and
your Understanding that Laughter is Truly a Gift from God.
It was exhilarating to witness an entire room of your Congregation Laughing in Unison, including Teenagers and Their Parents!
I believe, from my Heart and Soul, that Entertainment is just another way of bringing back the people to our Church.
If there is any time in the future that you might have an idea Concerning Entertainment, as Crazy as it may seem,
My Family, My Staff and I
would Love to be a Help, whether it's just about Marketing, or a Performance
We are just spreading
The Word.

Johnny—You never cease to amaze me and the guests. I heard nothing but compliments from all in attendance. Your gyrations, your facial expressions, the magic, the comedy and naturally your ventriloquist talents couldn’t be better. We are lucky to have you.
From myself and Fran, Thank you, Thank you

I just wanted to say thank you again for a wonderful evening the other night. My dad had a fantastic 80th birthday party, and I just wanted to say so.

My eyes were all wet when you were doing the bit with the mask. Next time, I will make sure I record that. I saw a lady in the front row wiping her eyes, too. I never laughed more. Your partner is good too. You were a great one-man show at Milton Theater without help, too.

Good morning, I would just like to reach out on behalf of the Reliance Engine Company of Floral Park, NY, to say thank you, Gemini (Johnny), for
Saturday night's performance at the firehouse.
Everyone had a great time with lots of laughter. Nothing but great things were said about Gemini. It was one of the best Christmas parties by far since I’ve been there because of Gemini!! (Going on 18 years) Just sitting there and hearing all the laughs around me made my night.
Everyone has their own stuff going on in their lives, so we all needed a night of laughter.
So thank you, thank you, thank you!!
We will keep you in mind for future functions.
Happy Holidays to you All!!
