Hi folks , John Paul Monroe here .
You know me as a
singer of popular songs who
travels throughout America .
I'm the fellow who
makes videos of
performances of music in
beautiful places .
I'd like to tell you
some things about me .

The domain name of
this page is
john paul and bertha . org .
Perhaps you're wondering
" Who's Bertha ? "

Bertha is my wife
since  198 2 .
Suddenly on
October  6 th  201 7
my dear wife died
while in our home .
Don' t be sad .
Bertha is still with me …
very much so .
My performance of songs is
our performance .
The ring is still on .
Our marriage is
forever .

Bertha and I are
not alone .
19 women of the dead are
with us:

Mary
Mary Magdalen
Martha
Tsviya
Saint Bridget of Sweden
Saint Catherine of Siena
Saint Jeanne d'Arc
Saint Kateri Tekakwitha
Ann Lee
Mary Todd Lincoln
Saint Maria Goretti
Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska
Anne Frank
Marilyn Monroe
Judy Garland
Janis Joplin
Inga Saunders, née Dessau
Kristen Marie Pfaff
Aileen Ann Clark, née Popst

These treasured women are
in my care .
They ' ve been with me
for many years .
I call them my
princesses .

I adhere to
this pledge:

I will take
very good care of
my 19 princesses and
my one wife .

We consider ourselves to be a
family of  2 1 .

We aim to do
great things for
mankind .

We say:

Engender peace
within the heart of
each soul you encounter

We receive this as a
commandment from
God .

With the
innocence and optimism
of a child
we seek to make this
widely known .

We're inspiring people to be
merciful and
considerate of
others .

We' ve been
on the road
for 7 years .
We travel in
my Mazda .
We stay at
interstate rest stops and
waysides .

From  2018  to  2024
we sang outdoors for tips …
we did that
hundreds of times .
We' ve done
many shows at
mom‐ and‐pop ice cream stands .
These days
we sing for free in
parks .

We call
our musical group
PLEA
for Pleiades
the star cluster known as
the Seven Sisters .

Here are
the  48 songs we sing .

Thank you for
your interest !
