October 19, 2026Best Abe Lincoln Ever!
We hired Abe for my brother's 40th birthday brunch. It was a small group (only 7 of us) and we had a blast! Abe Lincoln showed up and wished my brother a happy birthday, even presented him with a gift, and sat down with us to give us so much history and awesome facts about Lincoln. He was eager to answer any and all questions we had, and of course took a bunch of photos with us! Additionally, my family loves to travel, so Abe even suggested several historical landmarks to check out in the future that we didn't know about. We learned so much, and Ron (I mean Abe!) really knows his stuff! If you are even THINKING about getting an Abe Lincoln impersonator for your event, your search stops here! You will not regret it!

June 30, 2024Wonderful event and presentation
We invited Abe Lincoln to an adult pool party. Everyone was delighted when he showed up. Abe mingled and talked with party guests for the duration, posed for tons of photos, answered everyone’s questions, and did a presentation and speech by the pool. We all had a great time and learned some things. Highly recommended!

This was my first pool party. It presented a challenge to give the group my talk. To my amazement, it turned out wonderfully. A good group of people that I enjoyed talking and educating with.

I saw Mr. Lincoln, er... Mr. Carly at the Royal Oak Historical Society Museum in February, 2023. He was spot-on in terms of appearance, and his manner and interactions with the audience were both knowledgeable and sincere. There were lots of history buffs in the audience, and he engaged them in a way that was enjoyable to all. He gave a very long performance, and left us all highly impressed. We left knowing a lot more about Lincoln than when we arrived. Thank you!

What to expect
A client would see Abe Lincoln! Abe is shot (photographed) daily. I am able to give clear concise presentations as well. School functions are a favorite event to attend. I love when Young minds recognize me.
About
My name is Ron Carley. I am the father of a 19 year old Son who attends a Christian College in the Grand Rapids Area in Michigan. I have worked at a job for over 44 years now in Customer Service. 4 Years ago I attended a Halloween Party disguised as Abraham Lincoln. My barber cut my hair based on a picture from the 5 dollar bill. I put on the Top Hat, vest and bow tie and amazed even myself. Several People commented on my uncanny resemblance. I began to research Abe's life and created a web page. My journey has been to say the lease amazing. I am recognized as "Abe" in public even when not in costume. I am blessed to be invited to attend events all across the country.
