To my dear friend Donna Ray,
I want you to know that since I can’t be there to present you with this award, I asked our friend Carl to do it for
me. The Louisiana Jamboree is the ideal place to present it to you as this is your home stage thanks to the great Bud Christian
and his wife Carole.
My friend, you are one of the greatest Artists to ever sing a song and we here at Echota Records want to show our appreciation
by giving you this small token of appreciation you so well deserve.
Thanks to all of your fans who also requested that you receive this plaque, I present you with our highest award.

ECHOTA RECORDS "Broken Dreams" Album Sees DONNA RAY'S
Cherished Dream Fulfilled
CD
REVIEW by EVY
Date: April 8, 2008
Artist: DONNA RAY
Title: BROKEN DREAMS
Label: ECHOTA RECORDS, Calhoun,
Georgia U.S.A.
Songwriters: EDWARD A. GOWENS, DONNA RAY, LORAINE WASHBURN
Producer: EDWARD A. GOWENS
Websites: http://www.donnaraymusic.bizand http://www.soundclick.com/edgowensAlbum Dedication by DONNA RAY:
"I dedicate this album to my dear friend ED GOWENS who has been
an
inspiration in my life. ED you have been there for me since the day we met.
You welcomed me with open arms on your
label ECHOTA RECORDS and
through you I have met so many nice people who have also welcomed me.
By the way ED don't forget
the snacks. You know how I love to have my
snacks. hehehehehe .. DOODLES"
They were destined to meet, and they did.
What a climactic moment that
must have been, when a songwriter whose skill it is to write those tear-
flooding country
hits met the star who has the voice, personality and heart
to take his songs to the very top. In my opinion, ED GOWENS
and
DONNA RAY are a perfect music match if there ever was one.
When choosing songs for my March 11, 2008
"Tribute To Stu Munro" show
as a fond farewell to the retiring STU'S PLACE radio host, it was NANCY
MAREEN'S
"I'm Crazy For You" from WIR-Records that declared our
passion, and "Like A Dagger Through My Heart"
from DONNA RAY'S new
album was the cutting edge that unleashed the sorrow of longtime listeners.
"BROKEN DREAMS"
explicitly exposes the deepest pain of a hurting heart.
Healing begins when we stare the cruel truth straight in the eye,
cry out our
sorrow, and start to feel the joys of life again. We are then finally free to
discover that lasting
love and real happiness may be only one ecstatic
moment away.
Congratulations to DONNA RAY whose "BROKEN DREAMS"
album is also
a dream come true for fans and radio hosts everywhere who hunger for the
pure traditional country sound.
Thank
you ED GOWENS for sending me the album to delight STU'S PLACE
listeners while I was a visiting Guest DJ, and for giving
me the absolute thrill
of meeting DONNA RAY through you. She made my day. You did, too!
With love from Canada,

Dear Donna....I listened to this classic again and the songwriter would be proud of your
rendition. For some reason, the title 'Down In The Valley" comes to mind...heck...do I
remember learning a verse or two of this song in school? I recognized Lamar Hunter in
the music right away. I love what you guys did to it. hugs and love from Canada...evy
