My ICQ friends were a significant part of my early computer life and I can't imagine what it would have been like without them.  There I have found a sister and a Jeanius, bumped heads from Toronto to Australia, shared my innermost feelings with a cupid, felt the warmth of the Sun, had the privilege to "hear" a deaf friend and have battles of the wits, and many times bolstered a friend in need of an angel. 

They taught me about far away lands like Brazil and Spain.  Made me dream of beaches in Baja and yacht clubs in Sydney.  I have been directed to books like River God and The Seventh Scroll and have been prompted to explore poetry, art, music and have reread old English literature like never before.   I have "met" physicists, truck drivers, movie producers/actors/directors, lawyers, housewives, artists, chief financial officers, entrepreneurs and others from all walks of life.  My online friend Mike was the driving force behind these web pages in 1997 and a special thank you goes to him for pushing me and convincing me that I could design a web site of my own.   ((((((Mike)))))) Thanks Hun for all your help.  We sure have come a long way!

Many of my original ICQ friends continue to make my days better for knowing them.  To some I am Celeste and to others just Heather and "oh oh" yes, some know me as both.  *VBS*   

You know who you are.  You've been the sunshine that falls softly upon my shoulders.

Strive to live that your teachers
will seek to become your friends.
Be grateful for the
slightest token of their helpfulness. 

I LOVE

each and every one of you and continue to send guardian angels to watch over you.

 

I went to Toronto summer '98.  Invited a  bunch of ICQ friends to have dinner with me.   We had a great time.     Laura even drove in from Michigan USA.   She's like a sister to me and has now moved to Kansas. Jean is my Jeanius and we have become great friends.  Bob is a special guy too.   He has the most gorgeous eyes! And we have great talks about numerology and the spirit world and of course Egypt..  Patty has now married her icq love and moved to Iowa. She is not here in this pic but could not do a page about ICQ without mentioning her here.
