Good morning, dear FRiends. Today in addition to continuing our prayers and support for our troops - Please, God, watch over them and bring them home soon - we also salute one of my favorite FReepers and yours. Please come and say hello to onf of FR's Finest Sweethearts, deadhead, AKA Colleen, of New York.

Mornin' Billie. Sunshine and blue skies today. Orange and lemon blossoms are filling the air with their fragrance, and now you present us with deadhead. Way to go!

Colleen, it's great to meet you and your family. Thanks for all you bring to FR.

Atta Girl, deadhead!

In order to satisfy our insatiable desire to recognize and honor many of our Finest Freepers, our Hostesses, Hosts and Graphics Guru/General Charmer (take a bow, wolfie..:) crank out features day after day.

Their hallmark is the outstanding quality of the presentations - our delight is being able to express our own perception and appreciation of the Featured One.

Colleen, it is so reassuring to read more about you and see photographs of the wonderful family that helped shape you!
Having had the good fortune to 'talk' to you a bit on the side, and to view your frequent presence on the threads, always cheerful and positive and giving, I thank you for what you bring to us.

You typify an All-American Family and Girl, the members close and living life with love and respect and joy and reverence.
We can imagine all the escapades and laughter (loved your Christmas decorating 'surprise!') and the depth of the support given in more difficult times.

I know firsthand the emptiness created with your mother and father and brother having preceded you to heaven - all the Should-have-beens in The Album never to be posted.

Yet, you are the product of all the good things they gave you, and pass that love on, to your family, and to us here at Free Republic!

As part of your Big Freeper Family, I am pleased to extend whole-hearted

Another tremendous thread! Another Fine Freeper



Thank You for all you do.

Afternoon, Ms.BillieBlue! : )

A most beautiful post. : )

[azGOPgal]

Wonderful job Billie.

Colleen, it sounds like you have a wonderful family. It's always so great when they are on the same page as you when it comes to things such as politics. We visited with my great aunt and uncle from my dads side, and I was pleased to find out that they are republicans and big supporters of President Bush. They backed him 100% with the way he is conducting the war in Iraq. I suppose I shouldn't have been too suprised to find out they were Pubbies since my grandmother is very conservative. I guess in some cases it just runs in the family. :)

Have a great day.

Great profile of a great lady with great values! Love the pearl border, along with everything else. Stunning! (And in your favorite color!! LOL)

{{{{{{{{deadhead}}}}}}}}}

I have always enjoyed your posts and the sunshine that you add to the Finest. I have run into your brother off and on on various threads. He is a passionate, informed poster. It's always good to come across FReepers like that.

What a superb FReeper family!

[Mama_Bear]

Huff, puff.......finally got here. Good afternoon all!

Lovely presentation today, Billie. The pearl border is just so beautiful. And, I AM having "a bluebird kind of day".....now that I am finally here. :-)

deadhead, how nice it is to meet your family...and, how blessed you are to have them. Looking at the pictures I can feel lots of love coming through. :-)

I hope you have a perfect day. (((((((((((deadhead)))))))))))

Afternoon Billie and everyone! I'm trying not to go on Paltalk until later but I think it's a losing battle. Opening the FReeper Hangout and getting everyone in for discussion and updates is just to tempting! Either that are take a nap! I do love it when I get to come home see my friends here and at PalTalk and be lazy!!
