My sister Lisa has a huge crush on Thurl Bailey. She loved his basketball skills but more than that she loves his inspirational story and his beautiful singing voice. He is such an ambassador for the Church. Her husband James knows how much Lisa admires Thurl Bailey and decided to give her a very cool surprise gift for Christmas this year. The guy who calls the Jazz games is in their ward and so James asked him to get an autograph from Thurl to give to Lisa. Well, instead he came to their house and knocked on the door and said, "I am sorry, I couldn't get you an autograph from Thurl Bailey, but will this do?" Out of the car stepped Thurl... and my sister almost fainted! He was so cool, came inside the house (almost hit his head) and met the kids and signed autographs in person. He acted as if he had known them for years.
Needless to say...very cool surprise.
