Lyle, Sticktalker, Sticky to me.

Dearest Sticky,

         Oh my! I was surely blessed the day you came into the halls of "The Paper Doll Gang!" Right from the start, your humor, your upbeat personality and genuine caring for others, before yourself, came shining through.

         Though you were but a Newbie, I had no choice, but to snatch you up as my Jr. leader, before someone else did! You didn't stay in that position long, because you are a natural born Leader, and so, I promoted you fast. Everyday you had fresh ideas to make the Gang a success, and your tireless efforts were and are amazing!

         Your writing, too, is wonderful, with careful attention to detail, comedy thrown in to make me laugh, and you have a wonderful imagination. I just had to have you as my "Rising Star."

         I know you will go far and provide us all with entertainment from your unique writing STYLE for years to come.

         Thank you so much, sweetie, for all you have done within our Gang. I am proud to call you, my friend.

Hannah
