I listen to their music every single day. I go to sleep listening to it also. At 76 years old, I know I do not have a lot of years left and I pray that I leave this world listening to Vestal singing. That would be perfect!!

I am 64 years old and Fell in Love with Christian /Gospel music 🎶 when I was a young girl , and remember listening to them and all the groups surrounding the Gaither worship gatherings throughout the years. I fell in Love with JESUS MORE AND MORE. It brought me through the hardships of my life. It was SOOO NEAT to see Mark Lowery and Michael English in the background. I watch Mark Lowry’s ‘JUST WHENEVER’ sing along Everytime I get a chance. ❤And was Blessed to get invited to hear the Gaither Vocal Band in person. At which time, I truly needed, as I had become a widow three months prior ❤

The Happy Goodman Family is still one of my favorite gospel music groups. Their songs are so ageless and timeless . Many thanks for sharing such an important part of gospel music history.

‘’What a voice’’ that ,GOD gave Vestal…I’ve listened ,and loved her singing since the 60’s -I’m 83yrs and never get tired of listening to the Goodmans sing of the Lord…

Untold many Vestal has been instrumental leading to The Lord. Joy and Michael English are two of my favorites. Went to Christ Church, Nashville, with them. What a joy their music was. Vestal came to worship a few times I was there. She took Michael under her wing and directed him back to the straight and narrow road, no doubt. I love all this Gospel music.

The Happy Goodmen singing puts me back to a time of family reunions, old christian songs and church picnics on the grounds. Visiting my aunts eating scratch Cakes and being hugged till i couldnt breathe. They all sang the old songs when together. I never felt so loved or protected as they sang the christian songs raising their hands to God. We need this back into our homes . The Gaithers are such special people. We love your music !!

Everybody at that piano was so enamored with that lady. They could see the power that she wielded and her soul. It drew a lot of people in and to her. And when she opened her mouth to sing, It was all over. The spirit started moving, and the goosebumps started to appear

Praise the lord. I taught mine to pray on the floor with me and they all 3 received the Holy Ghost but I feel I failed to teach much of the Bible, like you say back then we didn't talk so much to the kids ( what were we thinking!?) These songs played continuously in our home. We didn't do church, however, I preached my receiving of the Holy Ghost testimony and most of our family received! My mother, 2 sisters and our children and now grandchildren are being filled. We will all see our salvation come to a saved state when he descends to take us back home...I credit the happy Goodman music for our many hours of wonderful worship!!!

Now a days you have men wearing shorts, hats, torn shirts and ladies wearing practically nothing at all. These were Classy, God fearing honorable times. A era long gone. Im picked on for my stances on issues like these but im going to continue the good fight of faith. Mrs. Vestal was very honorable and pleasing in God's sight. 😊
