Post A time with Dana

I met Dana-1987-in the small Northern California town that I lived in. We became aquainted one evening and arranged to meet for the following evening. I wasn't a Diff'rent Strokes fan and so knew her only as Dana until that next day. Dana claimed her own special, exclusive place in my thoughts and heart forever. I've written a remembrance of and tribute to Dana for all to read. If you would like me to send it to you, please write to<kittflynn@oro.net>.

I just wanted to tell you guys to check out this story by Kitt. It's really a touching and sad story. I emailed him for a copy of the story and we've been emailing each other. He's a really nice guy. So if there are any Dana Plato fans out there or just some people who are curious of what Dana was like, this is worth reading. Kitt's a lucky guy to have met her and I definately envy him.
R.I.P. Dana, we miss you!!

I read the story also and it touches your heart. He has such a way of expressing his time with Dana. Email Kitt and let him send you the story.

Kitt: If you are reading this I want to let you know again that I loved the story.

RIP Dana

Thanks Jenny. Dana was the inspiration. I'm fortunate that she gave me the story to tell.

I also have read Kitt's story. When I read this story, it definitely was
very touching. When I read it, I began
to understand Dana a little bit more.
If you want to learn a bit more about
Dana, I highly recommend you read this
story. The story gave me a new perspective on Dana Plato.
