Colleen You helped to make it amazing, thank you! :)

You did an absolutely amazing job with this Colleen. I was completely taken by surprise by this, and felt all the more closer to everyone, in all the different thoughts, feelings, and laughs we've shared over the time I've been on Akaqa. Thank you Colleen, this was really a very sweet and meaningful gift to us all.

Colleen You all helped! Thank you for your impute. I'm glad so many of our top contributors were able to share some words for this :)

Excellent work Colleen, you are a very valuable commodity to this site and have many friends who care about you here, including me. It seems like you have a good deal of creativity, just wondering if you have ever tried to paint? When I started I just bought some acrylic paint and canvas and began painting, I bet you would be pretty good...

Colleen I did one painting in my life. It was my last. I had no patience for painting. It came out good and my mother has it but it was too time consuming. I prefer to draw. I draw people and have done some animals, pets mostly. Thank you for your contributions to this site too. You've always been so helpful to all the members here. A long time member, one of the first and much respected :)

Thank you seems hardly enough Colleen but THANK YOU.

Colleen You're welcome and thank you too! :)

                                                WOW........WHAT A LOVELY SURPRISE

Thankyou Colleen for taking the time and effort to make us members feel special.I would also like to take this oppurtunity to thank all our members for their contributions to akaQA.Lets try to be all here this time next year for the 2nd Anniversary.

Colleen Thank you for all your work here and the time you put in helping to moderate. I meant to add moderator to your picture and forgot all about it just trying to get this video on to you-tube. I'll remember for the next one ;)

This gift of effort, talent and affection you've shown for each individual who commented is overwhelming.  It has for me made us all closer.  I feel as though I have just left our annual AKAQA dinner and I'm revisiting the moments I've had with each person.

No tongue in cheek for this reply, as I usually do.   Although I've got to say you sure as H look a lot  like the super sexy Sharon Stone.

Thankx again Colleen

John

Colleen Funny you should say that, Sharon will tell you that people comment to her all the time that she sure as heck looks a lot like me! Hahahaha, OK so I jest ;) Thanks caddam. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for being a part of it :)

That brought tears to my eyes, and I don't cry easily. Thanks Colleen!

Colleen Where you pealing onions at the time? (Hey, just trying to save your masculinity here..) Blame it on the onions! :D Seriously, TY nom, thanks for being part of all this :)

AMAZING AMAZING - Too bad I missed this. Next year...

Colleen Awww, I wish I had thought to e-mail you! One of akaQA's first members should definitely be on this vid! :(
Well, maybe this will teach you to spend more time here and less time in your real life! LOL! Thanks so much Volcane ;)

Thank you Colleen,this makes me feel a part of something,and the way my life is going right now I sure did need this,thank you so much,big hugs going out to you.I've said it before and I'll say it again,you all are more of a family to me than the one I have at home,again thank you all...Rick   P.S. I've watched it three times so far with more to come,and it also brought a tear to my eye.

Colleen Rick, This is what akaQA is all about. A home away from home where people can come, relax, get away from real life if needed and have a good time helping others and socializing at the same time. I'm glad you are here and are a part of this little community. I'm glad you get from it what it is meant to be. Thank you for your contribution!
