Phyllis Ward/McGrath 2nd October 2009

Once upon a time. ( about 12 years ago) a group of women met in an AOL chat room. Total strangers talking about a soap, All My Children. soon some were going to a private chat room, and soon after that we started corresponding in and email group Amy ,Barb, Calli, Dawn,Mary,Nina,Reenie,Phyllis, Patti, Tee and Judy( who we lost a few years ago along with Rebel mom,Ninas mom) After some time had passed, we all decided we had to have "Rebel meets". Most of us have met , Not all have met all. we have had meets in Pa, NJ, Ct and fla .We have been through it all, births,deaths, weddings. All of us have grown , changed and aged all with the help of each other. Calli was our " elder" I think self proclaimed. that duty now falls to me.. I think Calli and I had a lot in common. anti war, womens rights. As different as we all are, something special has bonded us. I will miss Calli so very very much. a part of us is now gone. and it will never be the same. I hope that Calli and Judy ( judy another animal lover) are up there enjoying whatever there is to enjoy. To Callis boys.. Please dont ever be afraid to ask any of us for anything you may need. We are ALL family our families are everyones PEACE phyllis
