>THE RECENT BASHING OF THE GOSNEY GIRLS -- DR. GARY L.
>GOSNEY, 12:03:51 07/03/02 Wed
>It is with the greatest degree of sadness that I must
>make a reply to the disgusting display of
>irresponsible remarks that a great number of
>misinformed malcontents in the pageant world have made
>on various pageant boards. My wife, my daughter, and I
>have been slandered and libeled by people who have not
>got the guts to list their names on their malicious
>and hurtful statements on the internet pageant boards.
>I do not follow these boards; but, the content of
>these remarks has reached me through my daughter who
>has been told of the bashing by her friends. My wife
>rarely lets bashing bother her because her business
>seems to grow by leaps and bounds in the presence of
>negative reactions by parents and coaches who her
>students have trounced in a pageant. But, when it
>involves her daughter, it upsets her and with Susan
>when she becomes upset it only makes her work harder
>and press on with a greater degree of excellence in
>her students so that they may perform at even higher
>levels in their events in the pageants. In other
>words, she doesn't get mad-she gets even. Now, to
>respond to these false accusations. My daughter,
>Thumper, is a good child. She is innocent, loving,
>caring, and kind. She is also a natural born
>comedianne. Perhaps some of you remember her Patsy
>Cline, "I Got Your Picture" routine. Her modeling is
>fun, exciting, and clean it its content. When she
>performed the routine which involved the humerous
>pretention of a "marijuanna" cigarette, it was done
>for fun and as a joke. If someone becomes offended by
>that, so be it. I am offended much more by the people
>who cowardly hide behind an internet posting to run
>down a child, her mother, and her father. If you were
>too ashamed to include your name, then your remarks
>have no validity and their negative nature are of no
>value as are you for making them. This world needs
>more humor and laughter and less nameless negativism
>and hurtful coments which have no validity and are
>made from losers who have only the gutless posts on a
>pageant board to try and make themselves feel better.
>Is this anyway to set an example for children? Thumper
>is a straight "A" student, a hard working pageant
>child who practices to become better, she a good girl,
>a Christian, and to all she knows,a good friend. Now,
>I need to make a few remarks about the coach whose
>reputation has been questioned by these crude and
>irresponsible statements. Susan has worked hard all
>her life. She owned and operated her own dance studio
>since the age of 15. She had been teaching since the
>age of 13. She began professionally performing as a
>singer at the age of 18, touring the entire United
>States, including Alaska. She performed at Disneyland
>and her stay was extended to 6 months because of the
>popularity of her show. She was then asked to move to
>Disneyworld and she had an extended stay there. It was
>at Disneyworld that she recorded for Disney. One of
>the songs, "Have a Happy Day" is still being played
>over and over at the entrance to Disneyworld. She was
>also asked to be the singer who would introduce the
>songs of Norman Gimble and Charlie Fox, who among
>other hits included "Killing Me Softly," as well as
>many other American classics. Rather than staying with
>these songwriters, she decided to return to her first
>love, dancing and choreography. She returned to her
>dance studio to teach children and choreograph local
>musicals. In later years, because of her love for
>children she opened a baby and childrens store. She
>had a small chain of these stores but because of the
>demands of her coaching business, she sold down to
>one. Susan also does original designs and pageant
>clothing and makes them by hand with the help of
>several seamstresses. In addition, her hair and
>make-up business is booming. I have seen Susan work
>all night long to get her dresses, sports wear,
>western wear, or whatever out when she promised.
>During my entire experience with Susan, I have never
>heard her use an ugly word, even if she stumps her toe
>or pinches a finger; it is not a part of her to do so.
>She is kind, caring, loving, and funny. She is not
>perfect, but, she is certainly always trying to

>She weighed 104 pounds when she was a professional

>censors can do anything to improve their looks.
>Susan's heart is sincere and in the right place (a

>those hipocrites hearts who spend their time insulting
