Forever treasured, this letter from Vera Lynn represents not only Encore History’s strongest link to the past we portray but also the most delightful feedback we’ve ever received.
“Receiving a letter from Dame Vera Lynn was like having a heroine step out of the pages of history to wish me good-day.”

“ As a local media person I frequently see entertainers of a wide variety and can say unequivocally Jody is truly gifted.”
“To say Jody presents a fabulous show would be a gross understatement. The presentation (Sentimental Journey) was flawless, the song choices perfection, and Jody’s voice fantastic! Jody is wonderful to work with and I would have her here every month if I could!”

“The Nelson County Democratic Woman's Club of Bardstown Kentucky sponsored Sentimental Journey as a public event for the community on November 12, 2018. It was a thoroughly enjoyable evening and everyone that attended was enthralled. We highly recommend Sentimental Journey and Jody Ingalls. Her presentation was a tribute to the era and a testimony to the goodness of our society.”

“Both of my grandfathers fought in WWII, and I’ve been teaching a class on it for 25 years, so I have more than a passing interest in the topic. Mrs. Ingalls taught me (and our students) about another side of the war, and she did so with boldness, talent, and passion. Her time invested in our campus was much appreciated.

“What a fantastic way to step back in time and learn a little more about WW2, it’s songs, entertainment, and the role women played. I highly recommend Jody Ingalls “Sentimental Journey” show!! We all loved it!! ”
“Just keep this show going!”
““I’ll Be Home For Christmas” will be playing in our home every Christmas season. It is both reminiscent of the original recordings of these timeless classics and unique in its own right. Beautifully done, Jody!”
“I’ll Be Home for Christmas” with its simple accompaniment and clear vocals is rich in 1940’s charm, both fresh and deeply nostalgic - my new favorite Christmas listening.
