Hmmm......what is that old Abe Lincoln quote..."You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time."

Well, it appears to me that you've only fooled one person....and that's YOURSELF!

.....Because hands down, you are THE BEST!!!!

Wink Just thinking

Maybe we could form a "Meet Gracie Day". It could be held in the LSL Town Square to accommodate the expected huge crowd and we could take turns passing her around. Because it's my idea I get a couple of extra minutes with her

Gracie is one of a kind, and very special to us....we are reminded everyday of Gracie while we are In TV, as we are surrounded by her artwork....hope you all get a chance to meet her...in our opinion, she is the best Ambassador The Villages has ever had.

The Villages Florida

Pooh here, of P and Pooh, booking agents for Gracie, the Great, The Villages, Florida. Walk with me, talk with me...... Of course there will be huge crowds, and we'll need to discuss crowd control and sun cover for our best client..... (Really, she's a great person and I love her to pieces!)

Ha Ha, that person you met that said she was Gracie, was really an employee of the Morse organization hired to post on TOTV and meet people in order to create good will. There is actually no such person as Gracie, as it would be virtually impossible to be that nice and positive. I'm pretty sure I'm right!

But it is so wonderful that everyone I know meets warmth and acceptance and friendship here in this lovely place.

Thank you kindly.
Gracie,

You were kind enough to invite Tim and I along with other new villagers and not so new to your home. You were the most genteel and welcoming person who ever opened their home to me. You are indeed fooling no one. You are the one who creates that warmth, acceptance and friendship in this extremely lovely place.

Thank you
