I
want to thank you for letting me be part of this wonderful
place for seniors. To see young people helping seniors
as you are doing, leaves hope for the world. Your understanding
and compassion is a rare thing in this day and age of
people hurrying in their own world. All I wanted to say,
is God bless you both. I no longer feel lonely and alone.
I am as comfortable here, as I would be in a big easy
chair, by a fire with a cup of tea. I am with friends
and always welcome. Life does not get any better!!!...Blessings,
>Barbara |

To be so intelligent is a wonderful gift, but, handsome,
lovely, kind, caring and all the good adjectives that
can be thought of spells Kelly and John Thomas. Thank

"I
would like to thank Kelly and John for this wonderful
site. It has changed my life completely. I
have found several wonderful friends. At first I
was rather concerned as I wrote to several different people
and didn't receive an answer. I didn't give up and
sent out several more before, eventually the replies started
arriving. I just want to tell anyone who may feel
rejected, as I did, please don't give up. The people who
have replied to me are great. I really look forward to
opening my inbox each day. There are very few days
in my life when I don't find an email there. Again thank
you so much Kelly and John"………Norah |

Kelly and John, my husband and I are totally impressed
with the Write a Senior Citizen Website and your professional
approach to all areas of interest to us seniors. We had
no idea that a service such as yours was available in
our World today.
I took your initial advice on joining and have emailed
many people on the recent members list and todate I have
had several interesting replies from very nice ladies
who like myself were looking for someone to write to around
the World. You have given my husband and I the opportunity
to express our thoughts, ideas and experiences and to
reach out to other people so as to share their experiences
with us.
Thank you both once again for taking the time to assist
me.
Kind regards to you all..... >Meg

“I
would like to take this opportunity to thank you, Kelly
and John, for your work on Writeseniors. The web
page “About Us” has been read by my wife, Norma (67),
and my neighbor, Dorothy Cox (92), who is nearly blind
and is confined to the house. She has no one else
but her Sister who is herself housebound and infirm.
They have asked me to convey their heartiest congratulations
to you both for the great work you all are doing.
Not just on e-mail, but all the other projects for the
benefit of the old and lonely people. I too am very
grateful” …..>Edwin |

"Just
a little note to say its a wonderful thing you are doing.
I was just surfing the net looking for a pen pal myself
and I came across your site. My grandmother just
went through a rough few yrs with her heart which restricts
her from so much. When I told her she should get a pen
pal (that I would help her) it has given her new life.
She is so excited. I'm even considering a
senior for a pen pal. It would be like adopting a grandparent"........Teresa |

“I
want to personally “Thank” you both for the wonderful
and splendid job you are doing to bring a smile and self-worth
to the senior citizen group at such a tender age.
I had no idea how young you both are. I must commend
you on your generous deeds for the senior citizen group.
There is a very special place in Heaven for children like
you both. Thank you again”…..Ernesto |

“Just
a note to let you know how much I admire you. It
is young people such as you that are our hope for the
future. Words cannot express how deeply I feel for
what you are doing. I misspoke when I said hope
of the future because you are doing so much for so many
people at this present time. How did you learn so
much about life so early in yours? I believe I could
continue with praise for several pages. I did want
you to know that you are special. May God bless
you”…..>Johnnie. |

“Losing
all of your family and life-time friends is something
no one visualizes until it happens. Thank God for the
marvelous invention of the computer which has been my
connection to the world since the loss of my companion
of almost fifty years. One of my e-mail friends
lives near the coast in North Carolina and we had daily
contact as to the status of the hurricanes. This
was exciting to get first hand reports! “…..>Lyn |

John

will open up new worlds for them. Then those of us that
are able to retain our health and mobility still enjoy
the penpal pages. Thanks again.....>Betty |
