In Memory Of My Sister Margaretann


Don't stand by my grave and weep,
For I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint of snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
...
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning, hush.
For I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circle flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand by my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die.
RIP Sister.
August 2, 1937-December 5, 2006
You will live forever in our hearts and memories.

A Sad Anniversary

In Memory Of

Dad

A gentle man, a gentleman, who passed away
17 years ago today. 
A day that will forever be shrouded in sadness
for me and my family.

A small photo but a huge memory of life with Dad

"An Invisible Thread"


“An Invisible Thread” is an ancient Chinese proverb that says “when two people are destined to meet nothing can keep them apart.” It’s like a thread that will bend, it will stretch and twist but will never break.   – Maurice and Laura


Love and food brought the two together 25 years ago.


When Maurice was just a boy – the two of them met when he was just 11 – he was literally walking the streets of New York begging for money because he hadn’t eaten in two days.  When his path crossed with Laura’s both of their lives changed forever.


Book:  “An Invisible Thread” is a true story.

September 11, 2001, Morning of...

Ken and I were just married less than four months. I was getting ready for class at college when he called me. With a bold voice, he told me to "TURN ON THE TV~  NOW." I stood there absolutely aghast at what I was seeing. Actually, sadly, incomprehensibly saw the second plane hit the second, south tower. My world, THE world changed that day, never to be the same again.  RIP all the Angels of 9/11/01.

Website - Mine, et al.

Hello!

Been very busy on a number of projects. I gave a client's website a redesign and update, which was well-received. While deriving a great sense of accomplishment in doing so, prepping my business website for a huge redesign, update, and upload has been the most time consuming project. It involves changing my CSS from internal to external since I have several pages of work from various artistic genres to upload.

I have a host of photographs for exhibit and purchase, including exquisite and dynamic travel photos (NJ, NY, PA, VA, D.C., Niagara Falls, Norway), animals of all kinds, interesting and unusual architecture, beautiful landscapes and an assortment of vibrant flowers for nature lovers, and a project in and of itself - photo restoration.

In addition to artwork, I have writing, copy editing, and proofing skills which I picked up while in the workforce just prior to embarking on my college education. Many pieces are demonstrated within my online writing portfolio. My transcription skills have recently been put to good use, as well, on the topic of metaphysical spirituality, which I found most interesting and enjoyed working on tremendously.

Another project I have almost completed is a printed directory using Quark and CS5.5.
