Ok here I am in one one my "It's that time of the year moments" and I just have to thank each and everyone of you for your friendship and dedication for our Freddie Prinze and crew of Chico and the Man. I have been overwelmed with the love that is out puring through each individual here. Your posts here have inspired me to continue my websites when I felt like I wasn't dedicated enough.(Yes there was a time I felt that! LOL) Your own dedication to Freddie has made it all worth while. I guess I am feeling emotional over the ceremony and that Freddie has a positive mark in history in the "present". I can't believe that after all this time that we have still loved Freddie so strongly and are continuing to keep his memory up lifting and not negative. I am so glad that we have friends like Isaac and Luis who have graciously spoken of Freddie and Maria and that they themselves are aware of what we are doing to preserve Freddie's memory. From the bottom of my heart I thank you all for your love and support for this fine human being we all know of as FREDDIE PRINZE.

I went to some of the sites today and believe it or not I was also thinking of making a new Freddie site. So if anything you've given me the inspiration to make a new Freddie site for him. I enjoy reading the posts of your sites and I go time and time again. You've put so much effort into it and I enjoy it. Just know that you and your hard work is appreciated. We're lucky to have Isaac and Luis coming aboard every now and then cause they appreciate it too. :talk:

The ceremony for Freddie took alot out of us. (Imagine his family)? It was a very tearful time for me. I let loose.

For my New Years resolution I vow to lose weight. :lol: & start a new website for Freddie. :wave:

I guess this time of year does make you feel sentimental and very appreciative of all the things we have. I think about those babies (the troops) in Iraq fighting for our freedom and believing enough in this effort that they are willing to give up thier lives so we can live a life of peace and the freedom that we take for granted everyday. Thanks to all you men and women and I will continue wearing my red band around my wrist until you come home safely to your families once again.

I also want to thank every one of you who dedicate their precious time into helping keep Freddie's name alive and well. I have grown to love him so much over the past few years and am so blessed to have made contact with such wonderful friends. Thanks to Suz and all the others who have created wonderful websites to honor our beloved Prinze. There is so much work that goes into keeping up the sites and making sure they are updated on a regular basis. Thanks to Isaac and Luis for your precious emails...we are so very grateful..and of course to Maria and her love and graciousness towards the fans who have been fortunate enough to contact her. Thanks to Freddie Jr. for loving your father and realizing that even though he wasn't here to see you grow up....he loved you so very much. You will always be his precious "Pie." Merry Christmas to all of you here and have a very safe and blessed holiday..and even though it's not politically correct or popular any longer...may we love this country, say the pledge of allegiance with pride in our hearts and bow our heads in prayer without any shame. Thanks to everyone of you.

Every year at this time i too think of all the blessings i have had over the past year...maybe it's just me but the bad times in the past don't seem quite so bad as i look at the start of a new year.
I can't believe how long it's been since they aired Chico and the man and brought us all together.
I am so thankful for all of you, your friendship and concern, prayers and laughs
It has been a wonderful year in so many ways, the anniversery of Chico and the man and the star...may there be many more to look forward to and here's to CATM on DVD in 05!
:dance: :cheers:

Amen sisters. & Suzanne is definately most dedicated with her sites & the way she updates them. IWhat an inspiration! haven't gotten around to updating my lousy (It's not as good as ya'lls) lol Freddie site. Too busy with everything else including my newest obesssion Starsky & Hutch. But Freddie is in my heart & I am keeping his memory alive in there. May you all have a great & merry Christmas... :)

I love the way you put that, Macca! And I agree with EVERYONE on here... I love the way technology has brought all of us fans together; I'm very thankful for all of you wonderful friends! This year has been kind of a stressful one for me and I don't get as much computor time as I'd like to! But the loyalty on these boards are just great!
And Merry Christmas to everyone! :wave: patriot: :candle:

Ah thanks everyone. But I can't take all the credit. Your feedback and support has helped me a great deal. I have been through a lot lately and have been blaming myslef for it. I have been depressed over a family illness and mainly because I could not attend the ceremony that I so desperately wanted to attend. Finding out the last minute that the date was changed screwed things up for me royally. Don't get me wrong. I am sooo happy for those who could attend and give us every detailed description possible. I however am not jealous at those who could attend but thankful. Just me not being there as I had hoped makes me feel that I have betrayed Freddie some how and that he is dissapointed in me! :crybaby:

Sweet Hue Mee,

How could you ever feel as if you betrayed Freddie? He knows you were there in spirit with your entire being beaming with joy. You keep his memory alive with your sites and your devotion and remain a gift and inspiration to myself as well as others. Know what a gift you are......

No you have not betrayed Freddie. You have kept him alive with your sites & shown such devotion to him & Mando. I'm sure they are both proud of all your hard work. & We appreciate it too... :)

Don't feel bad Hue_mee. I myself wish I would've gone. Maybe if we hear anything else on Freddie maybe we can plan and all try to meet and go together.

Hue Mee, you have definitely given us so much through your sites. Anyone having a site for Freddie is sharing the love that you have for our Freddie. Please know that Freddie is smiling down on you for all the hard work you have put into your sites. That is true for all of you with your sites. I love to visit all of them.

Funny, I do feel badly that I don't post enough on the sites. I guess there is always something more you could be doing in each facet of your life. In this new year we all need to practice appreciating who we are and what we do. Because we are all very special.

We truly are lucky to be in an age where we can connect via the net and share our appreciation for Freddie.

You are all wonderful people and are happy to be a part of these fan sites for Freddie.

Hue-mee, if anyone has let Freddie down on the websites department it is me....I didn't realize just how much work Kriziazafiro did in making the site happen, and keeping it fresh and innovative.
I hope you come back soon Ely we miss you
i am afraid i have let you and Freddie down by the lack of activity on our site but i promise to do better in 05.

No way Joy. You have continued to capture Freddie's essence in your own unique way. Having a website honoring Freddie, or any other person for that matter, can be enjoyable and educational on both parties for you the webmaster and the person viewing the site. I agree maintaing a website can be time consuming and some times difficult to keep fresh and new. Deep down in the long run we have kept a living tribute to Freddie through these websites and you have done a great job keeping Freddie's Cafe up and running while Ely has been out of touch with home activities and computer issues. I hope to see Ely on line soon. She has been a devoted fan of Freddie and I miss her posts and pictures at the Cafe

I second what hue mee said. Whatever we do is wonderful. All of your sites are a wonderful tribute to Freddie. I hope everyone's New Years Resolution can be to love yourself for what you do, not what you think you should do.

I do appreciate everyones sites and everyones insights and views on the topics we discuss.

I have to say a very sincere thank you for all your feedback and comments during my moment of moodiness. I have been doing some updating and with Isaac's gracious approval, I have turned his website address into his own domain name. As most of you know I did that as well with Ed Brown's Garage. I will be adding more items in the coming weeks. Thanks to so much for your support and cheering up when I was moody. Things are finally looking up ahead.

The new links are listed below! Thank you and thank you Mando

Great job on the sites! I'm sure Mando & Freddie (from heaven) are proud. Wish I was doing as good a job as keeping up my Freddie site as you are. :)

I may be just coming down from watching a wonderful episode tonight, "Aunt Connie" but just seeing Freddie in his youthful self, his timeless good looks, and such joy in his heart this evening, was so sentimental to me. I don't know if it was because I had not seen that episode in so long and seeing his laughter, his emotions really tugged on my heart to know how I, we all miss him. I am so glad I am not alone in this theraputic moment of loving and missing Freddie so bad. I smile when I hear the theme song, I gleam when I see Freddie appear before me on the screen. God I wish he was here to see what we have done to remember him! I am just thankful that there are those who were close to him in one way or another here today to see us still remember him!

what a beautiful thought!

Be still my heart...sigh

I would like to personally thank you all for your kindness and support that I was received this year……

We all have been through so much in one way or another that we have been a tight little family and growing.. In support to one another through good times and bad.

I would like to thank each of you for your support in the Freddie Prinze Sr website this year:wave: Each of you contributed in it in one form or another, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support, in helping keep Freddie’s memory alive with much love and renewed interest.

I also would like to thank those who have there own websites and are continuing to help keep Freddie’s memory alive in there own creative way.

A heart felt thanks goes out to Isaac, Luis, and Maria for there continued love and support for Freddie and there sharing there special memories of Freddie.

Those who worked with Freddie and were close to him. Isaac Ruiz, Luis Rivera, David Brenner and Del Casher. I appreciate whole heartedly your kindness in sharing your memories of Freddie to us, his fans. We can not even phantom what they experienced with Freddie personally and I appreciate each of there time shared with me to share with you.

Discovering and rediscovering Freddie’s younger years was a delight as Freddie’s theater group members Edgar and William shared there memories with us about a young aspiring Freddie full of talent and eagerness to express his gift to others around him. I would like to thank a “special” person in Freddie’s life for sharing there time together and being very honest about it. Our emails back and forth to each other have been as cherishing as the private post that you left in my guest book.

Lastly my most appreciative thanks goes to all of you here for your continued love and tireless efforts in keeping Freddie’s memory alive. Each and everyone of you here plays a big part in loving Freddie and keeping his memory alive. With out you Freddie’s memory wouldn’t be the same as each individual here has played a big role in making it happen and I am forever grateful!

Well said Suz...and we appreicate all your efforts. We certainly have become quite the family..and what a pleasure it is. We do have fun if nothing else. Thanks Freddie for bringing us all together.

I like that picture Suz. I wish I were so talented to fuse my young picture with Freddie and Santa! WOW................

What an eloquent post you wrote Suz. Thanks for all you do. :wave:

Well put! And the websites are keeping his name alive... :)

I am so grateful that Freddie's memory has brought us all together. I can always count on you all to make me smile and listen to me. And I would have never met my hermana Mariposa if it weren't for these boards. Merry Christmas everyone :wave:

i couldn't agree more!

Dear hue mee,
I cannot thank-you enough for all that you have done and are still doing.The love and compassion that is in your heart for Freddie cannot be measured.You have devoted YEARS to your belief in Freddie and you have ensured that he lives on in memory.You share with us photos,facts,you keep in contact with Freddies loved ones.Since finding this site and becoming a member the day that I found it,I learned more about the man that I was infatuated with when his show first started.I also look back and think,wow he was so young but watching him you would think that he was older than his actual age.(does that make any since?)
You also brought back happy childhood memories for me because as a family we would always watch Chico and the Man together.With the busy life that I have had since leaving home I did not reflect back on childhood life as much as I have since encountering this board.I feel bad that I talk to people every working day that have no clue what it is like to sit down at the dinner table as a family,talk and then watch tv together.The ones that I talk to,when they were home,they ate dinner in front of the tv at different times and they are watching MTV rap videos(this is a fact where I work).

So hue mee,I would like to thank-you for all of the work,you inspired others to start their own web-sites and much more.
Freddie IS thankful that you chose to devote your time and energy into keeping his memories alive.

What once was an infatuation for him turned to a deep respect.

I am thankful.

Respectfully,
Paula

Oh thank you Paula:bighug: thank you everyone for making this all possible!

about how much you all mean to me.

This past year has been an emotional one for me and also for most of you here.

After what I have gone through these past few months emotionaly and still am at one way or another. You all have been so supportive in keeping me from cracking up so to speak. Moving forward with what I have been through has been a difficult challenge and I thank you all for your support. You have no idea what your love and friendship has meant to me these last few months. When I felt that no one understood there you all were giving me support any way possible. I have to especially thank Mando for his kindness and encouragement when I was so down.

Maybe this is just a build up of what has happened in my family and my trip to LA coming up very soon. I know Freddie will be by in my travels in spirit and I am thankful that Freddie has brought us all here together

Isn't it great having family! Its the best feeling in the world. I know I appreciate you all, even tho I am not on here as much as I would like to be anymore. I still think about you all, and I appreciate your thoughts and prayers for me too. Huemee, I know you will get through all of this. I hope you have a great trip.

What a beautiful pic! Freddie would've loved it. May God be with you all in the coming yr & things go better for everyone. Btw. yesterdsay I happend to catch on TVLand an ep of Bonanza with Jack Albertson in it. Looks like he's good on everything he has been in that I've seen...

I just want to say that I hope you have a fantastic trip Suz. You deserve it. Having a trip like that will detour your mind into having fun and forgetting all your troubles.

You know anytime you need us we'll be here for you. Freddie bought us here together. :heart:

After how I have been feeling lately. That and the anxious part of going to LA again. I decided to revamp the Freddie site. No more is the site a depressing black and grey, but loaded with bright colors... Enjoy and I have a new video for the main page....

http://www.freddieprinzesr.com

awesome changes you have a wonderful site thank you for all your dedication!!!

As you all know I have been through alot lately and am very grateful for everyones support. I stated in a former thread that I had made some changes at the Freddie site and now have redecorated Mando's. Please take a visit and sign isaac's new guest book as I have to add a new one the old one can not be edited anymore. Isaac has been a great big help during my little crisis and it is the least thing I can do in return to sweet caring guy we all know as Mando. Gee I hope he likes it too

Isaac's site (http://www.isaacruiz.com)

Great site! I posted a message. (BTW, in my message I recalled a moment from the first season, but I think I mistakenly wrote "first episode"...) Anyone else ever have those "blonde moments"? :lol:

Great job on the site. I know Mando appreciates all your hard work... :)
