See you on the farm!

The time has come to say goodbye, my health demands that I stop playing Big Farm. I have had fun playing for 6 years and been honored to be the co-leader of the Brat Pack for 5. I have met so many awesome people and have received so many beautiful emails. Thank you. I apologize for not answering them all, but it became too hard.
Mark, my co-leader and my good friend, we had a five year run together leading these awesome Brats. You are a special man and I have valued your friendship, always love you.
My Brats, I love you all. We are a warm and loving family and you have made playing this game a delight! From the time you found out I had cancer you wrapped me up in a warm cocoon and gave me your love and prayers. There are no words to say how much you all mean to me and how much it meant to me that you stuck by me.
Thank you, Charlie, for agreeing to take over leadership. It's a tough job, only the leaders of large coops know! I have total faith in you and the co-leader you choose, Sandra. I hope Brats give you a chance and help you rebuild.
Espy, love you. Bailey, scarecrow, pinky promise. Kenn, I will have that cup of coffee with your mom. I am so lucky and blessed to have met so many great people in so many coops .... so many. And I thank everyone for their prayers and well wishes, all your emails touched my heart.

The BF I know is with Mary, a formidable player and leader. I will be lost...

Words fail me. so let me offer these sentiments expressed elsewhere:
"I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. We find comfort in knowing that our lives have been enriched by having shared their love." (Leo Buscaglia)
Your many kindnesses in this game offered in my direction will never be forgotten - nor will you, Mary.

I am so going to miss you

I was in BP before you became leader and enjoyed working in the cooperative with you.
May God bless you this Easter and every day to follow. I am praying that you beat your cancer.

I have only slipped away to the next room.
I am I and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other,
That, we still are.
Call me by my old familiar name.
Speak to me in the easy way
which you always used.
Put no difference into your tone.
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Laugh as we always laughed
at the little jokes we enjoyed together.
Play, smile, think of me. Pray for me.
Let my name be ever the household word
that it always was.
Let it be spoken without effect.
Without the trace of a shadow on it.
Life means all that it ever meant.
It is the same that it ever was.
There is absolute unbroken continuity.
Why should I be out of mind
because I am out of sight?
I am but waiting for you.
For an interval.
Somewhere. Very near.
Just around the corner.
All is well.
Nothing is past; nothing is lost. One brief moment and all will be as it was before only better, infinitely happier and forever we will all be one together with Christ.
Thank you for being such a kind & wonderful person & the best leader this game has to offer. We all love you very much & you will be greatly missed my friend. BP was my very 1st co-op @ lvl 36 and will be my last until I don't play this game anymore. Thank you for everything Mary!
Dan
Miss you already
XXOOXXOO, Vickie
1 Corinthians 16:14 Let all that you do be done in love.

You have touched my heart so very much. You accepted me in Brat Pack, a dream I have for a very long time, and you made it come true...thank you so much. I'm proud to be part of such a wonderful co-op and play with a wonderful and loving group of people. I will miss you very much. I will miss your green light.
Praying for you. God bless you. I love you, Mary. Sending you (((( BIG HUGS )))).

Thank you for the last few years of being an amazing friend with expertise leadership. You always knew the right things to say to create so much energy and excitement in coop events. You are the first person I think of when I log into this game and will be forever in my thoughts and prayers.
The entire U.S. server will feel your absence.
