I may a newbie here but I have lurked here for a long time, watching and listening. I have long admired the way you have handled things around here. You are to be commended for your service.
You've done a great job, and from what I have observed you are loved by all your Apostolic Friends!!!
Thank you, Renda, and God bless you.
You are welcome and thank you!!! It does indeed feel good to be loved by friends!

I am interested in watching you squirm as a poster (nonadmin capacity) when you will reeeaaally wish you could edit a post or give NOW or Timmy a smack-down...
We will give you a few days to reconsider!
For sure, you will be missed backstage.
Blessings, Hoovie
The biggest thing that will DRIVE ME NUTS is when the quotes aren't fixed! People....when you bold something that is close to the brackets with the /quote in it - - - make sure you don't include the first bracket. It throws the whole quote off!!!
You can edit it yourself - - just make sure the beginning of the quote has a [ ] with the word quote in it and the end of the quote has [ ] with /quote in it. That will make it right. Thank you, thank you very much!

It makes me sad because you are quite balanced and give the board a secure feel that makes us know that we are accepted even if not always agreed with. With you leaving ends yet another era of the FCF, NFCF, AFF saga. Well, we will survive. You just have to promise us that you will pipe up behind the scenes if you ever think the new leadership is getting out of line! LOL! Seriously, even though I know you will be around, you will be missed in this leadership capacity.
Don't be sad. I appreciate what you've sad about the secure feeling and being accepted - - that almost brought a tear to my eyes.

Enjoyed so much as you shared your children's marriages, complete with pictures, etc.
Also sharing later on when, Freeatlast, you, PO and James G., were going to be grandparents for the first time. Those events, and others, made the forum balanced and interesting! Thank you for all the personal help you have been to me! I love you! HUGS!

Thanks - - well, at least you got a lesson last week on how to change your avatar picture! I love you too!

Thanks Mr. S - - I try to be the real deal.

You will not be far away and we have other sites that we see you on also. Have fun with the Baby and your family.

Ah, Bella, that's so neat - - you just never know what someone thinks of you - - what a compliment. Thanks!

So wringing is what I'm feeling.....well, that makes sense!!

You've been more than a part owner and admin... you've been a friend to AFF. You've done an outstanding job, always fair, balanced and even handed. Be seein ya on FB and, hopefully around here when you decide to come down from your lofty perch to visit us.
And you've been my friend and will continue to be. You helped me to find laughter at a time when I thought I'd never find another reason to laugh. And I thank you for that. And for letting me call you my friend.

RG, would you consider Amin capabilities for DA only?
It would simplify your life. Get up, make coffee, infract DA, off to work.
