Our History and Mission

Post by Polly »

Hi All!

Wayne has created a new forum where I have posted the "About Us" information......titled "Our History and Mission". I have added a new last paragraph to make a "soft landing" as Karen suggested. The old last paragraph has been added to the Welcome to Newcomers thread at the bottom.

Please review and comment. It can readily be changed as per your wishes. BTW, I sent a copy of it to Sally because I thought she might be interested in her legacy. At the same time I also invited her to drop by and check us out! I hope she will, but I'll understand if she has had her fill of websites for now! LOL!

Love,

Polly

Polly,
Once again, your writting is awsome! I like the softer landing too!
"Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful." -- Buddha

Polly,

I just read it, and love it. The message perfectly brings things into perspective. Also, and more importantly reminds us of our history together (and bond) from Sally's board and the committment we have to continue to help and support others with MC. Love, Joanna

Polly, I love that soft landing - paying back is a wonderful way to be able to give. I owe you all BIG time.
