More comments from our residents from The Place in Martinez
“He doesn’t know just how he made my day. I really enjoyed him. It was so nice of him to come and see us. I hope he comes back.”
“I wasn’t even tired! Not even a little bit! My friend dozed off a little but she really missed out! He did such amazing tricks over and over. THEN he made things out of balloons! I couldn’t do that. If I tried to make a balloon thing it would just pop pop pop! I’ll just let him do it.”
I can't thank Uncle Sam enough for bringing that joy to them. I will gladly book him again

He came to a birthday party for a large group of adults with disabilities and it was so much fun for them. He is a storyteller magician and did really really well with this group!

I hired Uncle Sam to do a performance for my residents at The Place at Martinez Nursing and Rehabilitation facility. We have never had a magician before but Mr. Sam came highly recommended. My residents were blown away by his skill. Every resident loved him. I feel like it is only right to let everyone know what my residents had to say. The following are statements made directly from them when simply ask, "What did you think of the magic show and balloon twisting?"
“He was such a gentlemen. You know, very respectful. He walked around and talked to us like he knew us. Do you think he is married?”
“Oh Heather, he was wonderful. He did a trick with these scarves and a tube; he stuffed them all in and pulled them out all tied together! I really looked, the tube was empty. It was just wonderful.”

Uncle Sam gave an entertaining performance with his illusions. I appreciated him sharing his testimony and the gospel with the illusions as illustrations.

Uncle Sam went above and beyond entertaining guests at our HopeFest event! I had to stop the line of children wanting balloon creations just so he could have a break and get something to eat. We also appreciated his Biblical message woven into the magic show. Thank you, Uncle Sam!

We, Bethesda Baptist Church, had Uncle Sam come out for your banquet. He did some magic and comedy for us. He kept our audience entertained and engaged from start to finish. Her was an awesome fit for your event. He was more than we could have hoped for. Thank you again Uncle Sam for making our event a huge success. Our people are already talking about having you back and doing it all again. Those who were not in attendance are jealous.
