I just had to take the time to give each of you my heartfelt thanks and gratitude just for being who you are! I am so touched and moved by the love, devotion and care shown here for Freddie today and always. As his birthday gets closer, I find it hard to concentrate on anything else! All of you have expressed so much love for him, in your preparations for his 47th birthday, that I am moved to tears. It is the sweetest display I have witnessed. PLEASE know that the love expressed here is a wonderful gift to him, each other and ourselves. It is positive energy that flows to him in heaven and back to us here. I think that in the days and months to come, each of us will see the blessings that come because of what we are doing in memory of Freddie! You never lose when you show LOVE! Thank-You all once again for restoring my faith in humanity, the power of love and the sincerity of all of YOU. I think even Freddie must be astonished at the longevity and depth of our feelings for him. All of you have helped me so much in knowing that I am not alone. You will never know how happy you've made me and how much you mean to me.

FREDDIE FOREVER!!
I LOVE YOU - FREDDIE!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY!

You almost made me cry! It is a loving and touching tribute to someone who had touched our lives with his comedy and poise and he made us smile! We will always love him...... We will always miss him........

I agree my dear friend, this board has restored my faith in people too. I`m sure Freddie thought he was forgotten,but now the boy can`t quit smiling. Love you Freddie Happy Birthday!!!!!

I agree with all of you whole heartedly. All of you are such great people! So caring and loving. It is great to be a part of this very unique group. I really believe we have the best board around. I know Freddie must see all the love from all of us, and know how much we all care.

Oh my goodness Atlangel,

I am crying at what you just wrote, how sweet, kind and oh so beautiful. Everytime I read what you write I always have to have tissue next to me, you have a way of making people feel good and special. I always try to make people feel wanted and special.
I am serious when I say I would love to see you, Croiter, and Catcopy write something together. That would be something to see.

You are such a sweet and loving person. Please do not change.

God bless your warm and beautiful heart.
DE DE

De De, God Bless You as well. Thank you for your beautiful words, you have me crying now. I so much appreciate your compliments. I am so proud to be friends with all of you.

Thank-You again for being here.

Atlangel, that was such a beautiful way of saying what I, too, am feeling but can't quite say it as well because I am not so good at putting things into words....... I feel like I have made some great new friends on this site!

I cannot help but think that Freddie is behind all of this starting at the beginning of this year. Perhaps that is why all of us have been brought together (?!) We represent all ages, ethnicities, backgrounds, and both genders. Yet, we all agree on him! We all love him. We all miss him. We all respect and admire him. Our hearts ache because of what ultimately happened. We all feel anger and confusion because it should not have happened.

Well, Freddie you did it! You, from heaven, convened a very cohesive and dedicated group of loving people that agree! We pause to remember, reflect and just show love! You did something that most of our world leaders cannot accomplish!

Maybe I am making it too simplistic. But Freddie has inspired a wonderful array of people who got outside of themselves and reached out to others in unity and love.

Freddie You Are Awesome Baby!

FREDDIE FOREVER!

AMEN Dear Friend.

Freddie is indeed watching over all of us from heaven and smiling that wonderful wide grin of his and most likely saying "LOOOKING GOOOOD!" I feel his presence every day of my life especially when I am on line with my Chico friends. I feel that he is guiding us-bringing us all closer and helping to keep his memory alive. I feel blessed to have found all these wonderful sites and to know that after all these years Freddie has not been forgotten but instead-lives through all of us and through all these boards. God bless all of you and God bless you too Freddie for bringing all these people from different backgrounds together in your memory.
Happy Birthday-you're still the one after all these years.

Godbless everyone here you are all such good and sweet people its an honor to be on a message board with you guys.

GET OUT OF MY GARAGE!!!

It's amazing who how Freddie brought so many different people from different areas together! I want to congratulate you all for being so nice on here.

On my friend Arlo the singers message boards on his website some of his friends/fans on there got really hateful & fussy acting towards some nice freidnds/fans of his that I really liked on there & arguing started on there. They chased those other folks I liked off of the message boards & they are no longer on his site or message boards or chatroom. They started their own fan site & message boards so they could all have a site to do & be together & those of us from his Official site who still liked them could hangout with them. On the fan site there is no arguing. On his Official site I've had to deal with folks giving me a hard time cuz I like the ones they chased off the site. If someone decides they don'tliek something you've said on there they'll give ya a hard time about it. Even if ya meant no harm. It's a whole bad situation & Arlo was not pleased that some of his friends got chased of the site. Sadly theres not much he can do about it since the site is run by a webmaster fan/friend of his & does it for free out of the goodness of his heart to help Arlo out. I still stay on Arlos Official site & message boards (I do his other site & message boards too) because of him & I love him so & to find out about him & I was there first before the arguing started & it was my home on the internet...

So after going thru all that, I am pleased to find a message board where folks are getting along & there is no arguing! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif You are all doing a great job on here! Freddie would be proud of that! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif So thanks for being so nice on here! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/smile.gif

Oh boy on my friend Arlos message boards they were discussing salve on there. So Imentioned the CATM episode about Ed Browns using the salve instead of going to the dr. One of his friends on there wrote back on there that if I actually remembered any epsiodes of CATM I was watching too much tv & needed to take a walk or something. Geez! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/frown.gif So I had to nicely mention on there that the show was addicting & was one of those great pleasures in life... This was one of his disagreeable friends writing that anti CATM stuff so I know they aren't liable to agree with much that you say anyway. So I have to ignore it when they write diagreeable stuff... Sigh...

Cheryl - Visiting with Arlo is getting to be stressful. LOL

I do agree with the other posters when they say that Freddie has bought a group of people here to keep his memory alive. A memory that was almost gone if you ask me because there was hardly anything written about him. Maybe now the news media will remember him. All because of the love and rememberance his fans have shown him. It's not only about Marilyn Monroe, John F. Kennedy, Elvis, James Dean, Sal Mineo, there was a FREDDIE PRINZE SR. too!
