.:: Tributes: Dedication to my online friends/family ::.
I have been online since August of 1987, which this year will make 20 years. In those years, I have met some great people, some real idiots, some former friends who lost my respect, and everything in-between.
In my way of saying thank you to those who have become true friends, I have created this page.
There are a few who are not listed here. Those are mostly the former friends...they know who they are.
Those that I don't mention by name...I did that to protect their privacy, as I have mentioned online friends and friends/family from my real life.
I am trying to list as many people as possible in the order that I met them. Some of these friends know me by my real name, some as Gemr [my first online name], but most know me as Gemmy.
H, you and I have been friends most of our lives. You have been there through the good and bad times, and I know we'll be friends through the rest of our lives.
T, you and I met at work back in Indiana, and became friends. We're both perfectionist, which isn't always a good thing lol I know we don't always keep in touch, but if you ever need anything...just let me know, and I'll be there for you.
CatWoman, you were one of the first ones I met online. You've always been a dear friend, even during my bad times.
Blade, you were also one of the first ones that greeted me online. You always made me laugh back then. I know we've lost touch, but if you ever need anything, just ask.
Drieux, I'm not sure where you are nowadays. You were a good friend in those early days, always helped me with computer problems.
Andy, Rob, Tyger, & Chris, you were also with me in the rfa. We had a great time back then, doing everything from just chatting to writing those wonderful Castle Stories. While I've lost touch with you over the years, I hope that you're all doing great, and that your hopes & dreams were realized
Raven, I met you years ago when I wandered into #NativeVoices. We did the website back then, and continue to update it to this day. You help me keep connected to my indian side, and I'm very grateful for your friendship.
Vern, you were one of the first ones to greet me and make me feel welcomed in NAC years ago. While we've lost touch, I hope that everything is going well for you.
Woof, I hve known you for close to 8 years now. You are one of the first ones I met in Ghost Stories in old vp. We don't get a chance to talk much nowadays, but I'm glad that we've kept in touch all these years. I wish you and your wife all the best
EaSt, you're one of the few guys I feel priviledged to call “bro.” We're both hoosiers, both indian, and I know that you have finally found the special someone in your life that make it complete.
Troll, you are another “bro” -- but you're a special bro...you've always been there when I'm down...you help me see where I'm going wrong and set me on the right path. You have always been there for Damien & I, and that means more to me then mere words. Even though things did not work out with him, you will always be a dear friend to me.
TxAngel, you're one of the few in this world I call sis. You helped me get my own domain years ago, and have always supported me in everything that I try to do...even some that I'm not so good at lol
Princess.Kari, sis, you mean more to me then I could possibly say. You have always been there for me to lean on, and supported us. I know you have a wonderful life, and I'm so happy for you and your family.
Kacee & Skinn, sis & bro, you have been great friends over the years. You also inspired me years ago...being one of the few online couples that went real life (like my own). I wish you two all the best, and hope that you achieve everything that you've ever wanted in life
Milk, I've known you ever since my w0a days...I know we lost touch over time, but I'm glad you have found the man in your life...I hope you two remain happy for the rest of your days
BlackHeart, I've also known you for years, since the beginning of Ghost Stories. I know we have all been through some rough times, but know that we are always here for you, and that you are always part of our online family
Jaggy, we met over a year ago in voodoochat. You are so talented when it comes to Graphics, and I'm so proud that you're part of our shop I know you'll go far, and I'll always be proud to be your friend and online “mom” ~smile~
Rage and Midnight: I have known you two since my early vp days...almost 10 years now. Seems like it wasn't that long! I'm glad that we hang out in the same great places again, and am very glad to have found you again! ~hugz~
There are several more that are members of my wolfpack, and come to our shop on a regular basis. Too many to mention everyone by name...you are very important to me, though, and I appreciate your friendship so much Especially during the times when I was going through a rough period, and you know what I mean lol I hope that we'll always be friends ~smile~
Last, but definitely not least, is my real family. You mean more to me than words can ever hope to express. You have been my support and I am so glad that we are close again!
