  • We once again remind everyone that the Osmond Store is undergoing reorganization at the current time. During this software change, orders may be delayed for a short time to accommodate the process involved in the upgrade.

    We also appreciate the response to Merrill's new book and want to remind everyone that the book has not yet been released; those interested in reserving an advanced copy of the book should send their name and e-mail address to merrillbook@osmond.net. At this time the product is marked 'Not Available' in the network store, and thus cannot be ordered online. You MUST send in an email to the above address to reserve your copy.

    Our goal is to bring you a more diversified store, with unique, affordable products with more efficient processes involving ordering, purchasing and shipping.

    We are still open for business, and ask for your continued support and patience as you bear with us this transition to a highly anticipated most quality store!

    Thanks in advance!

Donny, despite a long day of interviews, even got 4 out of 5 questions correct on Craig's 5 Questions game! And those who watched the show know which CD cover was used for Donny's pending release!

    Congratulations Donny on a fantastic debut!

  • Alan has recently written a note in the Osmond Guestbook:
    Hello everyone that comes to the "Guestbook Land" of Osmond Network.

    This is Alan, and it has been a while since I have signed in and "written" to The Osmonds. :-) (Me, us, you, etc.)

    I just wanted to let you know that I enjoy reading your entries that you make into this guest book. We remember many of those who were a part of our 45+ years on tours, TV shows, Radio broadcasts, shopping malls, etc. all over the world. There were some great memories! And, we are still making many friends today. We have some fun plans for the internet and appreciate the return visits that you make and the participation you give into our web sites.

    As we all get older, I have found that many friends and experiences that we have all had together stay alive as we visit with one another via the web. I hope that you will feel the trust and valued content that we try to publish as we share our advice and ideas with efforts and importance in "strengthening families . . . including our own. I would really like to hear any suggestions of how you feel about the articles that come out of The Family.com. Deaf Net, and One Heart and what you feel as Parents, Moms, Dads, Kids, Grandparents, etc. and needs that you might have. We also want your good advice as you share with each other on the forums.

    Things can get pretty rough sometimes and I find that I like to know who I can trust and who to listen to for advice and to learn the truth about what is best for me and my family in these troubled times; how we can survive them successfully. I am sure you do , too! We hope you will continue to have confidence and trust in us and the "experts" that we feature and invite on our Network. 911 taught many of us that the most important things in peoples lives are their families and friends.

    We promise to work very hard to not let you down! We need your help, too! Our charity of One Heart.Org needs your continued help, suggestions, and support. Stay in touch and get involved! It is time for us all to stand for the good things in life that we all desire and work for. Life is good! Continue with Faith and Hope and join me in standing for the Right and the Good and NOT being embarassed to do so! Get "Noi-Z"! Make your voices be heard.
