Here
are some of the wonderful people who have touched my life and gave me so
many reasons to laugh and smile. Where would we be without friends?
Some of these friends are from my hometown and some of them are people
that I have met online and from a simple "hello" frienships were formed
as strong as if we lived next door. I am proud to call each one of
them "friend" even if I might be related to a few.

Bill, my best friend, my inspiration.


This is Anna, my new "sister". She is from Sweden and I was her very first ICQ contact way back in January of '99. We talked and became good friends so we decided that we had to meet and so we did. Anna spent 2 weeks in the United States with me this summer and will be back next year.

Here
we have Stephanie and my daughter Kim. Stephanie is another one of
my ICQ contacts who vacationed here in Pennsylvania with me this summer.
Steph is from Georgia.
Here's
my longtime friend Mike playing guitar with Bill.

Janey
and her husband Bill.

Here we are, having fun at Anna's "welcome to America" party back in July. I do believe we made her visit a time she won't soon forget.
This
is my daughter, Kim and my nephew, Dave who loves to party with us.
We
just call him "Mundo"
Here
we have my good friend Dale who lives near me. We talk on the phone
every day and
share
a lot of the same interests, especially our canine friends. Below
is a picture of her
doing
what she loves, showing her boy, Thunder.

These
are the people who are very important to me. Some stood by me and
held my hand and listened to me when my husband passed away. Others
have shown me that there is still so much life to enjoy and laughter to
share....and yes even yet, sometimes just hold my hand.
