I am Joy of the Farr family and am interested in getting originals of all 12 albums we made while I was growing up. We don't have any due to floods, theft and time. I put a message out on facebook in search of and someone sent me your site. Do you have just the one or more? I will pay for this and shipping if you are interested. Its a part of my life very important to me
You may not remember me -- my name is Gary Nissley from Pasadena, California. I first met your family in 1971 when you played at Brethren churches in Southern California. I visited your family in Middletown, PA during the Christmas season 1974-1975. I recorded some of your family shows at various churches from Long Beach to Fresno, including Ladera Heights and Pasadena. I would be happy to send you cassette copies of whatever tapes that I still have. As for the records, I still have I'll Walk With God, Clouds of Love, Sparkle and Family Portrait, and maybe more. As with you, this was a part of my life and I want to keep my originals, but I'll be glad to make you copies if you would like. Please say hi to Mark, Nick II, Kurt, Rick, Joel and your folks. I often think about your family and what you're up to these days. You can reach me at my girlfriend's email tina.tsoutsas@sbcglobal.net. I do hope to hear from you soon. -- Gary Nissley
I would love to have a copy of the Farr Family Christmas album. With listened to them at a church in Lancaster, PA when I was a child and bought the album. It has been damaged over the years. This was a very special Christmas album to me. Please let me know if this is possible. Stacy
Hi Joy. Not sure if you're still here or looking, since this post and your comment are 14 years old, now. Have you looked over at discogs? I saw your family at Trinity UM Church in Oil City, PA back in 1977. I had one of your family's albums, long gone, now. But, here's the link to the discogs page.

I've uploaded a photo of a Farr Family program from a church concert in the early 70s in Wenatchee, WA.
