[LadyX]

It is a genuine pleasure to officially meet the Other Half of the Bear Family.

For a long time, you both have made us a part of it, enriching our lives with your presence on the Finest and your devotion to the Fresno Freeps.

Papa_Bear, reading your biography is an inspiration to us, and we are in awe of what you do for others and your community.

You truly are an example of ' A Life Well Lived '

Oh gosh, LadyX, he is going to be so embarrassed by all this attention. When I first mentioned to him that Billie thought I should do a spotlight tribute for him, his response was......"ME!? Why me? I hardly ever post anything on FR". (The thing is, he can run a board meeting practically in his sleep, but he is kind of shy when it comes to posting. So, he prefers to lurk and do behind the scene 'things'.) :-)

Thanks for the sweet things you said, he will appreciate it, I know.

Thank you for the kind comments. This is starting to get embarrassing.
