-Visions of Joy appears on the world wide web, weighing in at a grand
5 pages... It was created with lots of technical support from a couple
of web-savvy friends; Charan van Tijn in the Netherlands and Don Bennett in
the USA.
Thankfully
they both are the type of dear friend who says: "learn to do it yourself!"
and then proceeds to show me how. The result is this extensive website
that you're viewing today. Many thanks guys; your friendship and love
and continued technical support are priceless!
