Here’s an excerpt from the article:

Best Singer Award was presented to the incomparable Grace Garland whose smooth sensuous satin voice caresses us darlings with a provocative sexy soulful kiss. Listening to Ms. Garland’s sultry voice is an intimate experience allowing all of us to reflect on moments of feeling empowered and just plain good about ourselves. Her music should be shared by friends enjoying a night out on the town having cocktails and martinis. Ms. Garland is best known for her stunning solo performances but she has also shared the spotlight with Grammy Award Winning Songwriter Julie Gold, Jazz Flutist Bobbi Humphrey and the late Phyllis Hyman. When she is not performing her sexy ballads Grace’s voice can be heard on countless TV and radio spots, most notably with actor James Earl Jones and the legendary blues guitarist B. B. King.

Although Grace has accomplished much in her recording artist career she is most dedicated to being a volunteer entertainer for Lifebeat Hearts & Voices, where she performs for patients living with AIDS. The ability to make someone smile and forget their problems, if even for a minute, is what Grace says it is all about.
