Honoring Hannah ![]() Some people come in to our lives, and we are never the same again. We are here to honor a great woman who has given of herself relentlessly. Even during hardships, she has never flinched in her pursuit of excellence, not just for herself, but everyone she believes in. From her beloved newbies to her cherished friends, we are all indebted to this woman and her immense heart. Hannah, we would like to bestow this plaque: ![]() You are a golden inspiration to all of us. We review better, we write with passion, and most importantly, we reach out our hands to help others. This is the legacy you have inspired. How do you measure success? It should be measured by a person's capacity to love and receive love. Hannah You are The Great Success Story ![]() For everything you do, for the very essence of who you are, we are grateful that you joined WDC four years ago. It just would not be the same without you. I will cherish this forum and your kind words, forever! And to my fantastic giving DOLLS and DAWGS, we truly are ... A Chain of Dolls forever linked. Hannah, I really wanted to have this forum to you on your anniversary, but life has a way of running away from me. I want you to know how special, important and loved you are. I don't know what I would do without you. Oh yeah, I remember. Go crazy. ~Mystic First, I have to say to Myst that this is one of the most beautiful birthday forums I've ever seen. It's gorgeous, and the plaque is a gold beauty. I know you will proudly display this much-deserved work of art as a tribute to your four years of committed service here at Writing.com. It is given to you out of love, and it represents how much you are appreciated by so many members. When I look at all the layers of your Paper Doll Gang activities, my head spins! It is well-organized and provides a myriad of activities to help newcomers to Writing.com. You don't stop at just showing them the ropes. Your group trains them and gives them an extra boost to make the most out of their membership here. You train them to be leaders and give them opportunities to lead. Some of the best reviewers and leaders who graced the doors of Showering Acts of Joy were trained at PDG. They are some of the hardest, most committed workers, volunteering whenever they are needed. Your contribution doesn't stop there, my friend. You give so much to Rising Stars. Gabriella chose you well, my dear. You have her kindness and generous heart. My fourth anniversary is around the corner, and our friendship goes all the way back to those first weeks and months after I joined. I learned your name right away, partly because my mother's name was Hannah, and partly because you were kind, welcoming, and encouraging. That's what newcomers need the most. I wouldn't have stayed very long in this community, swirling with activities I was unfamiliar with and a language all its own, had it not been for the kindness of members like you. You welcomed me and made me feel that I belonged here. You continue to do that today on a much larger scale. Enjoy this celebration, Hannah. Soak up the praise and the gratitude. You have worked hard; your work has touched others, and they simply want to let you know how much you mean to them. Don't feel embarrassed or undeserving. That will only diminish the joy that each member experienced as they shared their reasons for celebrating your birthday. Shine on, dear sister. Shine as a role model for Rising Stars, young and old. Shine as a beacon for newcomers so they may benefit from your many newcomer programs. Personally, I am honored to have an opportunity to let you know how special you are to me. Pat Be especially kind, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle. Thanks for pointing out your Fourth Account Birthday! `Truth is, if you hadn't pointed it out to me I would have heard all the whispering going on out this surprise forum just for you. You must be great to inspire such good people. I have no doubt. Really, I see you as the Good Witch in the Wizard of Oz, only better. Uhm, Tinker Bell in Peter Pan, no, no, you are better than the Tink. Hannah of the Paper Dolls! That's it. That is how good you are! A great writer who works wonders among her peers, miracles even. God bless you and God bless us all! Jimminy Imagine if you will an introverted and somewhat oddball character entering a room full of strangers with little concept of what to do or how to go about doing it. As I'm sure you can imagine, that person would most likely feel a little overwhelmed with things and uncertain as to whether they made the right choice in entering said room in the first place. Well that was me a few years back when I decided to check out WDC. Now imagine if you will a bona fide sweetheart who, although being already firmly established within this rhetorical room, decided to reach out to me and many like me to ease our entry into this wonderful place. Her patience, guidance, and gentle prodding took this self-described hack and showed him the ropes, the basics, the ins and outs of this great site, and her ambition, dedication and determination acts as an inspiration to us all....oh, and she also happened to create a place specifically for us newbies to congregate and grow as a group. In case you haven't figured it out yet, I'm of course speaking of you, Hannah! Thanks for everything you've done for me, I'm proud to be a part of your creation, and it pleases me to no end to see a new crop of newbies come along to perpetuate that which you have begun. Long live Hannah !Queen of the Paper Dolls !!!! Happy Birthday to you ♪♫ Happy Birthday to you ♪♫ Happy Birthday deeeaaar Haaannnaaahhhh.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUUUUUU!!! ♪♪♫♫! Hannah, words can never express how much you and your support have meant to me. You are always there, cheering me on even when you have had so much going on in your own life. Always know that I adore you and am always here for you if you need me. Happy Birthday! Pepper Hannah, Happy Anniversary!! I wish you many, many more. What would we do without you. You are such a gem of a person, kind, generous, helpful person!! You are truly and Asset to the WDC community. We love you lots. Happy Anniversary again my friend!! ~Hugs Janice I'd just like to thank you for all of the work you do for us newbies, and the great attitude with which you do it. When I joined here I had an irrational fear of blue cases. The kindness you showed me, showed to everyone, helped me to realize it truly was irrational. I'm happy to count you among my friends, and hope you stick with us for a long time. Thank you for the opportunities you've created for everyone on WDC and for leading us through them! Best wishes~ My dear older sister, Happy wdc birthday! Its been wonderful watching you grow. I I remember when we were first paired together to write stories and poems. It was so much fun! Congratulations on all of your success and may it continue many years beyond 4!. Love always, pumkin Wishing you many, many more! Thanks for all you do! Dearest Hannah, Happy 4th WDC birthday! You are the epitome of "SuperWoman" and you amaze me again and again. Your devotion to all things writing related as well as the countless people involved is incredible! You have a vibrant, beautiful spirit that inspires everyone you come in contact with, and I have been truly blessed to know you. Thank you for the wonderful example you continue to set for Newbies, Alumni and all other friends alike. You are a true WDC warrior! With deepest affection, Joy Hannah is a friend you can depend on. She is always encouraging. She will go to bat for you. She will stand next to you. Hannah is always ready to help. If you are and Newbie and you meet Hannah you will see how Special she is. I feel honored to know her. And Lucky enough to call her friend. HAPPY BIRTHDAY HANNAH It's my second day here, and I can easily say that you deserve all the love and respect from this community members. In 2 days you helped me like a best friend, reached a hand to help me and I still can't find a way to say thank you and I don't think I'll ever find one. I quickly felt like I knew you before, and I talked feeling that we're already friends, And I'm pretty sure a lot of people can relate to that. 4 years is a great achievement and you managed to keep on track of the great work that you're doing. I'm really happy I got the chance to meet you here on my first day as a member. I hope this is not the last time I wish you a happy anniversary! We need you here, I think you're an essential part of this site I know you will happy to read the comments from your fellow PDG members and WDC friends. The reason for that is because you're an Happy birthday, and thank you for all the wonderful things you do for WDC!!! Marc Hannah Thank you not only for all the things you taught me about reviewing and writing but also about giving from myself. You have a courageous spirit and your the most unselfish, giving person I know. Great job and you are truly a star. Love Kayna-Amy WDC is so lucky to have you, as are we all. From the first moment we met, you have been supportive and encouraging, and I want to express my deepest thanks, my friend. I have continually been amazed by your commitment to the writers of WDC and The Paper Doll Gang specifically. Your passion for everything you do speaks to the type of person you are, and blesses all of us. I hope we spend more years chatting via this wonderful site, Hannah, because I consider your friendship to be one of the most valuable that I have had the pleasure of making. I hope your holidays are full of love, laughter, and family! Kim When I think about Hannah - I think of this Irish poem ... I didn't author this - but it's a perfect fit. Coslorgaí (Footprints) Tá daoine a shiúlann inár saolta agus shiúlann amach astu go luath... Tá daoine a fhanann ar feadh tamaill... Agus fágann siad rianta a gcos ar ár gcroíthe... Agus casann ár n-anamacha port nua go deo deo. Translation: Some people come into our lives and quickly go... Some people stay awhile... And leave footprints on our hearts... And we are never, ever the same Thank you so much,, Liam Well, there's so much to say to you. I'm so glad you joined WDC so that I had a chance to get to know you. You are such an amazing person, a great friend and sometimes a mother-like companion to me. You have held my hand through ups and downs, forgiven me when I have faltered from my duty, encouraged me and it was your kind words that made me do things I hadn't dreamed possible. You had faith in me when I lost mine. Your confidence in me helped me come out of my inferiority and believe that I can do what you believe me to be capable of. If not for me, I had to prove things because you had such faith in my abilities. I have a learnt a lot from you, here on WDC and as a person, of kindness, love, calm and patience. Even during months and year of struggle during your fracture, you didn't lose hope. Even then you worked hard, as much as you could, you took on so many responsibilities and kept moving on. I admire you courage, Hannah. I admire the person who you are. I don't know if you would believe me, but amongst all the persons I have met here, you are my favorite and whenever I think of meeting people I know here, you are the first on my list. I dream of meeting you someday, sitting at the same table, talking to you. Please don't think I'm mad or a stalker maybe Happy Birthday again, Hannah and thank you for everything. Cheers! Christina Happy Anniversary:) Thank you for everything you have done. I hope to pass it on. May the Almighty give you the strength to continue and improve your work. Amen. Zubia (Restless Soul) Wishing you many happy moments to cherish on this special day! Whome Hannah, I haven't known you for all that long, really, but I can honestly say that I have never met a more encouraging, friendly, and loving person. Everything you do helps others, and every time I see your name in my email box, I just know it will be something good. Thank you so much for your continual support, encouragement, and above all, friendship. Congratulations on your 4 years as a member of WDC.com. You are a wonderful leader and mentor and I wish you many more years of joy, happiness and friendship that you extend to all of us and makes you so special to me. God bless. Shelley Congratulations on your Birthday and creating the fabulous Paper Dolls, it is such a fantastic group and it is the best way to get introduced in to the wonderful world of WDC. Thank you for being such an excellent leader. Hurray for Hannah! Fin I hope I'm not too late to join in with the choir. I'd love to sing your praise! I love you, Angel. Hugs, Charlene Hi, sweetie! I don't know how I missed this forum. You know that I'm one of your greatest fans, and the late tidings don't mean that you are less in my thoughts. You are an inspiration to me. I can't believe how much you have changed this site since you joined only four years ago. It has become such a welcoming and joyful site because the Paper Dolls are here. I can't imagine WDC without you,. or the Dolls. Congratulations on four wonderful years. ((Hugs)) Meeple Hello Girl! I am so lucky to call you friend! I have been blessed with your creativity in my life for a long time! I am so glad you have "hung" in with all of us and thank you so much for giving so much of your time, talent and love. The world and writing.com is a better place with you in it! Love ya, Michelle~Mi Belle~ Another year? When I first joined WDC I was lost. If I hadn't gone through the PDG Newbie Project I do not believe I would still be a member here. The class not only taught me to navigate this site, but it introduced me to friends that I still have, including you. You do more for people here on WDC than you'll ever know. Happy Birthday! And many happy returns. Angelo Hannah, The marvelous vision you have for the Paper Doll Gang has become our home here on WDC. We are proud to be Dolls. Past, present and then future dolls to come. You lead by example, give with a glad heart and never fail to keep us going. Happy WDC Birthday, Hannah You are an inspiration to me, and I am sure of many other dolls too. I am proud to be a member of the Paper Doll Gang. * Kindest Regards, Bonnie Hannah, You have been such a wonderful mentor but more importantly, friend. Although we met under difficult circumstances, I believe we were brought together because it should have! I know my father loved you so much and talked so much about you! On his wish list was to buy you a car, did you know that? Any how, it is with a great pleasure and honor that I call you friend and can not believe you've been here just four years! I will never be able to say thanks enough for all that you do and answer the silliest questions I have! You are a gem and one of a kind. hugs to you forever & ever! kim Hannah, you do so much for the community, and are loved and appreciated by so many on the site. I hope your anniversary is as great as you are! Sherri Dearest Hannah, You have been such an inspiration to me, not only through all of the hard work you put into the PDG, but also through the fantastic stories you weave and share in your portfolio. Thank you for being a mentor for myself and so many other newbies on the site. Here's to another wonderful year! Hugs and love, Happy WDC birthday!! To say that you've been an inspiration to many would be an understatement! Here is to you and the many helps you give to not only these people but in general to the whole WDC community. Cheers, Hawk Congratulations on four years... on writing.com. It is pretty amazing how many lives you have touched in the past four years and all the things you have accomplished, even with the adversity of your accident. My hat is off to you for being such a great role model to so many people on this site. In my eyes you are perfect. You were always there when I needed you and always had nothing but kind and encouraging words for me. I am honored that you are my friend. My very best wishes to you, always. You have been a great inspiration to many it seems. I guess I can tell you why I like you soooo much. You are kind, friendly, and always willing to help. My first impression when I first came on WDC was that this was someone who was part of an elite group in the website. Probably someone you couldn't really become friends with because she was already a part of a tight circle. But from the first moment I spoke to you I soon realized that that was not the case. You make everyone part of your circle and no one is left feeling left out or undervalued by you. You are such an amazing person and I really love that I got a chance to get to know you. And most importantly, I can't wait to read the next chapter to your bus stop novel. You are also an amazing writer and the suspense you have left me in is like torture. I don't mind at all being a fan of yours as well as a friend. Thank you Hannah for showing me the best side of WDC and PDG itself. You have taught me much. From Jocelyn Happy WdC Birthday! Thanks for all the encouragement and kind words. Here's to many more WdC birthdays to come! Mojo I wish you the best in your life as you move into your fifth year at WDC. We are all happy to know you and cherish you as integral cog in our community's motion. Thank you for all you do for all of us! Patrick Hannah-Hannah-Bobannah-.... Hey, Sister Hannah,— HAPPY 4TH AT WDC!! What an honor for me to have met you so long ago through our friend, Lyle. You may not remember, but you offered me some much needed advice a while back about reviewing and editing. That encouragement from you led me to pursue endeavors I otherwise would not have tried. Thanks for all you do for the members here, both newbies and oldies. You're an inspiration and a joy. Winnie(: Congratulations on your birthday celebration! I wish you all the best in the coming years, and hope they are just as successful and productive as the last four. Most importantly, I'm glad to have met you! You are a wonderful addition to the community, a clever poetess, and a great friend. Mandy. Have a great anniversary birthday and hoping you have many more to follow. Have a great one! ~ Kasia To Hannah: with the words she gives permanence to thoughts and fills each line with meaning. Thank you for your support. Kryton Happy WDC Birthday! Thank you for everything that u have done for us and most of all, thank you for being there when we needed you. Have a great year and wish you many many wonderful future years. |
