My dearest Gracie, I am so very sorry. You must do whatever you feel you need to do but please know you will be missed.
My best to you and your family,
Linda

I am very sad to think people will go out of their way to hurt a kind person.

I am asking you to reconsider your leaving.
1. Have you thought about changing your screen name?
2. Not post a picture with your new screen name.
3. We will know it's you, as your warmth will shine though.
4. Always remember:

It's hard to fly with the eagles, when you are surrounded by turkeys!!!!

Always rest, if you must, but never, never, quit.

Gracie, don't let the bad guys win! If someone is small enough to even mention Helene in the remotest negative light, they deserve to be hung by their short hairs for a very, very long time. If you leave here because of this slob and those who enjoy being negative, then you cheat yourself and those of us here who love you (and even those who don't).

Wow don't let people bully you. The worst type of bully's are those that hide behind forums like TOTV. I am new to The Villages and to TOTV and enjoy your comments and insight to many issues. RISE above these cowards and stay connected.

Gracie I don't know you yet but please don't leave. Many, many of us really enjoy your post. I'd like to thank you for all the helpful things you have done for this forum. Like Redwitch said if you leave they win.

I accidently ran across this topix site about a year ago. I too was angry at how they could talk about you and your daughter in such a mean spirited manner. Honestly, someone has to be mentally unstable to say such hateful things about a handicapped child. These people are of low mentality and most likely jealous of you. You are not the only one they speak so nasty about. Its a awful forum made up of haters.

Please know many people on the TOTV love you and ignore the haters. I am so sorry you found out about that sleazy forum. I was hoping you would never know it existed.

Don't let the bad guys win by running away. Report the imposter to the other website and stay true to yourself here. Some people are just so low they have to attack someone who is not in the gutter with them.

OMG. I cannot believe this. Gracie you know so much. I have never met you but I have great respect for your comments and information. I pray that you have the strength to move on and ignore such negative people

[marianne237]

Gracie, we only met once and it was a high light for me and DH. Please don't let the bad guys win. We're the folks with the white hats and that counts! Stay, please.

[sharonga]

Please don't go!

It is not pleasant when reading or hearing negative commentary even from inconseqential sources. The majority of us know differently.

Your presence is part of what makes the quality of TOTV what it is....the real GG!!

I agree! So easy to start hate and discontent by writing posts anonymously. I enjoy reading your intelligent and down to earth posts.

Gracie, one poster mentioned the forum being villages.com/ Someone used my username a few months back writing a position opposite mine concerning the paradise gate. I was going to change my username but decided that I wouldn't run

[gomoho]

Gracie Girl - you have lots of Village arms embracing you and Helene - take some time to digest this bullying and don't let the bad guys win.

I just went on this site. It Appears as though people read this forum for entertainment and the frequent posters are like characters, or celebs. We visit this forum for a different reason, one they on the other forum do not have in common with us. They do not know Gracie, so therefore their posts really don't have any merit. Some people are just mean. What goes around comes around....... They couldn't post here for long... They would be banned.
