I want to call your attention to a great person here on gather. Today is Kevin V.’s birthday. He Lives in Massachusetts, and has been a member since March 14, 2006.
I for one could say that if there is one person above the rest who represents the heart and soul of gather, then it is Kevin V. Actually Kevin did not want me to call attention to him. He is a very humble man who just doesn't get it. He doesn't understand how much he is loved and respected by the people here at gather.
Kevin runs several groups; gather member awards is just an example of how he appreciates others here on gather. Each Friday time permitting, he gives an award to a person he feels represents the heart and soul of gather.
I was the very second recipient of the award. I know how good it made me feel so I can personally vouch for others who received the award as well.
If you need to know anything about the running of gather, ask Kevin, if he doesn’t know he will find out for you. If you are not that familiar with the computer ask Kevin he will help you with that as well.
Yet the man remains humble and says he is just an ordinary guy. Even though he did not want attention called to his birthday, he promised to get something out to me. That is just the type of guy that he is. Unfortunately, he had to move this weekend, and feels bad that he couldn’t get something ready in time.
Can you imagine that, still putting the gather community above his own needs?
Kevin V. You are my hero. Happy Birthday my dear sweet friend.
Note to the birthday club members. If you have not yet submitted your birthday dates to me please to so. I need to prepare well enough in advance. Furthemore, when I send you the questions to do your celebration I need to have them back, at least one day prior to your birthday.

For anyone else who hasn't read it, I wrote this poem in Kevin's honor a few months ago

Will have to check them out.
Carol. , most of the images in this article are not showing up for me at all .
I also didn't know you had so many groups... I'll be heading to each an every one of them in the morning.
Of course, it's all your fault that I'm on Gather! If it hadn't been for you I'd still be on Blogspot reviewing blogs, blogging reviews and spotting blogs. Yes, folks, you can blame Kevin for me being here to run totally amok. And thank you, Kevin, for all your help in my doing so. I couldn't have done it without you.
Hey, wait a minute, that means I wouldn't be in the Sin Bin except for you, Kevin. And dear old Mr Beelzebub wouldn't be on Gather, either.
May God forgive you and have mercy on your tea-addicted soul! Then have a wonderful time by switching to coffee.
Blessings eternally!
I also haven't been that active on Gather since the beginning of December due to a hectic travel schedule. However, I hope to get back to the 'Spirit of Community' awards, tutorials, and some other new, fun stuff very soon....so stay tuned!
Thank you again Carol...you made my day even more special!
Carol, you a one great lady.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
HAPPY BIIIIRRTTTHHHDAY DEAR KEEEEE_VIIIINNNNN
