I joined the Garden of Friendship on March 27, 2009. I had belonged to this great group before about 2001 or so and had become too ill at the time to be active. I am glad I returned and hope to be here for a long time this time around. On this page I have my plaques, gifts and graphics from the Garden of Friendship. I have been taking classes to learn Paint Shop Pro and I made the web set that this page is on. I don't claim to be professional in that area, graphics, I am a professional web designer and a tutor for students taking computer classes at Community College of Allegheny County.
Imagine my surprise when I opened my email Sunday October 25,2009 and found this:
The Garden of Friendship's Appreciation Award
is the most prestigious award presented in the Garden.
This award is presented by the Garden Keepers for outstanding achievement on
one's committees as well as general involvement in extra curricular events and Garden activities.

I was asked to be the Assistant Committee Leader at Poetic Expressions Committee in May 2009 and I accepted. We all get along so great in this committee. The poets are very nice ladies and I am proud to be a member and honored to be assistant leader. Thank you Overseer Alita for asking me and thank you GOF for having this group.

I enjoyed this group so much that i joined 2 fun groups and another committee. I belong to HTML fun group and TNT tutorials and Techniques for PSP fun group. I enjoy them all.
The garden of friendship brings together many friends from all over the World. Where else can friendship bloom worldwide? I feel like I have known the members for life. The entire Garden of Friends has made me feel at home within a couple days. It has only been a little over a month since I joined but it feels like I have been here for years. Thank you friends for the warm welcome.
