Well Rick a large part of the praise goes to you. This website reflects your and Cam's creativity and dedication. I don't know if Richard has ever been on this site or had someone tell him about it, but he would be amazed at the love displayed here. Carpenter fans are very faithful and loving. I am priviledged to be a part of what is happening here.

THANK YOU RICK FOR THIS WEBSITE  Rick, you have done an amazing job with this website. If I can, I try to post daily, and I do enjoy hearing other people's thoughts and feelings on Carpenters songs, albums and lives. Yes, I know we are a great bunch of people. Maybe one day, we will get together and meet in LA, visit Karen's resting place, see Newville Avenue, go to the Carpenters exhibit at the Richard and Karen Carpenter Performing Arts Center...what better way to see Carpenters sites than with Carpenters fans! What I am trying to say is that Rick has done an astounding amount of work on this website, to keep it running, moderate very well, and add his thoughts to the Carpenters. And we know, Rick adores the TWO SIDES song. He loves the PASSAGE album. As well, he has a vast knowledge of the Carpenters ouevre. THANK YOU so much Rick!!! You are the best!!!   My thoughts, Cameron

Wow.....
Thank you Rick. Thank you.
I so appreciate all of the people on this forum and like you feel so blessed to be a part of this community. I've been having a Carpenter's video/CD weekend here in Phoenix to assuage some very unhappy things going on in my life right now, and it's a REAL pleasure to know that my love of all things Carpenter is shared amongst all of us here. Karen's voice and Richards wonderful arrangements are a soothing balm to me and have been since 1970. Yeah, I'm one of the original C's fans from the get-go but I see no difference between my personal understanding of the Carpenter's music than any of you here. I am blessed to be a part of your lives if only in an online world. *Kicks self for not being at the last C's meet in California!*
I've signed up here for a regular screen name and password but I can never find the stupid thing so I simply go by the moniker of John in Phoenix as a guest.
Oh well !
Thank you everybody for being here. *Dammit I'm acutally in tears right now..it's been a BAD weekend*.
Peace to all of us. Thank you again Rick.
John in Phoenix

Hi John,
I hope things look up for you soon. I know, life can be very, very tough and it seems you won't be able to pull thru. Please, remember people do care for you, even on an online world such as ours. "There's a kind of hush all over the CARPENTERS ONLINE world..."(tee hee hee...I could not resist that pun)...anyways, a hug for you here in Canada!!
Peace!
Cam

Thanks Rick. That was very nice of you to say and mention all of us. i really am honored to be here not just cause it's a site for Carpenters fans but because of what you have brought to the site.
The layout, the people and their thoughts, the kind words, the humor and so many other things that all the fans bring into it.
Thank you Rick and thank you to everyone else also for being a part of it. I am really enjoying being a part of it all.
