View Full Version : My Reading in Boston

First I have to say how wonderful it was meeting all the JEFriends in Boston! Can't wait to see those pix! Tammy, and Kathy, Deb and Lisa, and Lisa, and Angelina, Ms Moody, Delusional Blonde, ------so many!! I think Tammy has the list of all the wonderful people I hugged. My mind is still swimming over the seminar. I appologize for not remembering everyone.
Now I KNOW how "psychic amnesia" works 'cuz my family had a case of the "Sophias"! *smile* (Thanks John for a new phrase)
OK here's how it went: The first CLUE I got to being nervous about being zeroed in on, was when John came on stage and did his intro and the Q & A part of the seminar. Honest to God, my mom even commented on how John kept looking over at us. Then John talked about how being here and in the gallery was like being at a giant birthday party thrown for those on the other side. We all get a "taste" of sharing in the cake honoring those there on the other side and those who they come through for. This really blew me away because while we were waiting in line I was talking to my family as I handed them their tickets and said "Happy Birthday" to each of them since I bought all their tickets for their Birthdays (my own way of CAVing them)and after I handed out the last ticket, I looked up and whispered "Happy Birthday" to my friends over on the other side for allowing this to happen.
The first reading began and was for a woman about 5 rows behind us. I started feeling a little jumpy 'cuz some of the things John was saying clicked with me, but I didn't want to be a "relative stealer". So I didn't dare raise my hand. It wasn't for us *whew*.
He went over to the other side of the room for another reading, and then back to our side. Ut oh...
John said Romania looking right at me... "This is for the third row, you guys in the back are safe", John said. (WE were in the third row!) No Romania or Eastern Block country. *panick* He said, I'm not leaving, with that INTENSE look on his face, and I felt, Oh, God... What do we do? We don't have Romania, and then he said someone lost a son or young boy with Fred or Phyllis or Frank. Still nothing... Gulp! The physchic is getting cranky and we can't validate anything! I tried... A long shot, when he said Romania again. I said how about Beirut. I had a contemporary of mine pass who was stationed in Beirut, would have been a son-in-law to my father seated next to me. John said "No, that's not it, this message is not for you". Then he homed in on my dad and asked my Dad his name to which he replied, "Al". (AND my Dad DID NOT want the microphone!) but John said, "Al, this is all about YOU my friend." There was mention of a nephew of my Dad who passed, (to be the young boy John had referred to), but Bobbie (the nephew) was just a few years younger than my dad, and we still don't think that part of the message was for us. But after that is where things did start to click. John asked who has the family of 4. (WE had the family of 4,) there are 4 children. John said, "3 alike one different." My father said, "No", but my sister and I understood and validated. (My one brother is handicapped.) John asked who had diabetes and had to have their toes amputated. My Dad acknowledged his father had, and was astonished since his father passed when he was only 6 (over 60 yrs ago). John mentioned seeing aircraft/WWII/Planes/bombers. My Dad was in the Airforce (not during WWII) and worked in the maintenance crew. JOhn asked about a November connection. We believe this was in reference to the first grandchild being born in November. John asked my Dad if he performed on stage. My father validated this by saying that he had in High School when he sang in the Chorus. John asked if he had performed a solo, and my father again validated this. My Dad's mother came through briefly keying in on the fact that she had had circulatory problems. Then John said Rebecca. We couldn't get this right away. My father said how about Lorretta. John said, "No, not unless they called her "Retta". We ALL Emphatically shook our head in agreement and said "We called her Auntie Rette." John mentioned Mary pointing to my mother and said "Don't you have an Aunt Mary?" My mother sheepishly shook her head yes. With that John said they were stepping back.
We were hit by hurricane John! It was the most wonderful tasting Birthday Cake imaginable!
We think the message about the young son was for Farmer Kathy, seated in front of us, who had lost her son. She had a Teddy Bear with her named Fred, and her friend seated next to her may have had a connection to CZeckoslavakia. I'll let Kathy tell her story. (Thanks Kathy for the notes you took! *HUGE HUG*
I still am in shock. I cannot, nor my family believe, as we talked about the experience on the way home, that out of all the people there (over 1000) our relatives (and our family is extremely small) came through. It was the most awesome, humbling, and thrilling experience I could have hoped for for them.
There was one more thing that I thought really hit home with me. During the Q & A at the end, a woman asked if they can feel our grief, and do we keep them from moving on. John's answer was very interesting and touched me very closely. He said, Yes, they do know and understand that we grieve. John then told a story of a woman that went to see him and other mediums on a regular basis in search of reaching her daughter. John said that this girl said that she wouldn't be coming through anymore, that her mom had to get on with HER life and move on. John went on to say sometimes they feel they are keeping US from moving on, on our own journeys.
I still can't believe it... I need someone to pinch me...
Blessings,
Druid

i can totally relate, it is truely amazing isn't. i can remember how overwhelmed i felt afterward, thinking oh my god how could he have possible known this. it is such a gift and i felt so honored that my family from the otherside took the energy to let me know that they are still watching. i am so happy for you. isn't it wild how in a crowd of over 1000 he can "sniff out" one particular person, he is like a blood hound on a mission. lol.

What an awesome seminar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was so great meeting everyone from the board. It makes the seminars so much more fun (as if just going is not enough). Its like the frosting on the birthday cake:) .
Thanks Druid for your great account of the seminar. Yes we think that there was a "me too" with your reading. As you all know I lost my son, Ray and his teddy bear, Fred, goes to every seminar with me. I was going to say something--even tho I definately didn't want to be a relative stealer--but the Romania thing really threw me for a loop because John was so adament about it. Plus he kept insisting on the third row (I was in front of Druid's Dad in the second row).
Plus the WWll plane connection. My Dad was a paratrooper during WWll and at that time John said he was coming up with a name with a J or G. My Dad's name is Jim. After the seminar both my girls said "Mom that plane thing might of been Grandpa" so maybe.
I'm so glad Druid's family got so much information. It's neat enough seeing someone get a reading but a lot more fun when you know the person:) .
My girlfriend is going to check on the Romania thing. Will let you know. John was just so adament about that I hope we can figure it out. Any leads Druid?
Will post more later about different readings. John had a lot of Q & A he responded to too.

Wow, I missed meeting you Druid65 but met Farmerkathy, Delusional Blonde, ChrissyD413, PowerPug, Mreflute, Psyquestor,Forgiveness and Lisaasis. I knew that reading was for you guys. For some reason I was pulled to Al, I told my friend sitting with me that it is the old man in the blue shirt the reading is focusing in on. When John finally connected with your group my friend said, "Oh Wow, how did you know". It is just one of those things. It was like energy kept being around Al. The energy in that room was unbelieveable. I also took notes of your entire reading and most of all of the others.
I was the women in the law enforcement uniform with the braids in her hair that just happened to had to literally run to the bathroom right before John came out of stage.
I am glad the connection was made for your family and John remained the terrier and wasn't going anywhere until you guys acknowleged.

Thanks so much for the kind words. We're all still kinda "floating". The after shock has not worn off. I asked my mom this morning, "Now that it's had time to sink in what do you feel?" She said, "Well the message wasn't for me." I looked at her and said, "Well not who you wanted it to be, but isn't it awesome we got a phone call from the other side?" She agreed that that was pretty amazing and was really happy for my Dad who had not known his father in life.
I've had time to reflect and I think (and this may be a bit presumptuous) that one of my Dad's lessons in this life was to learn to BE a father, not having had an example of one growing up. My Dad and I really didn't have much of a realtionship when I was a kid, but now we're starting to, which makes the message all that much more poignant.
What I found remarkable, was how UNremarkable the messages were, but ALL VERY special. Just little life validations from my Dad's father to my Dad; that he SAW him in High School, saw that he was in the Air Force, saw that he raised 4 children. Something that a son would love their father to be aware of, and THAT's what came through. LOVE and the connections that continue on even after 60 years!
Thanks Pepe' for making the phone call.
Love in abundance,
Druid

I shared the website address with the woman who was read that I had been talking with who got the Tommy reading. I hope she becomes a member and posts her reading here. I do have notes on most all of the reading (10 pages), I will have to post them later I need SLEEP BADLY as I have only had about 4 hours of sleep the only things I have done in 2 1/2 days is work, drive to Albany for John's seminar there, back to work all night with only a one minute change of uniform and 3 minute shower, and then drive to Boston straight after work for the seminar there and then to a friends house for a few hours sleep, change again and shower and back to my home state for work again. And still I am posting on this website. I guess I will be sleeping for the next 15 hours. But the student in me must follow the teacher!! no matter how much effort it takes.
By the way it was nice meeting DelusionalBlonde, FarmerKathy, ChrissyD413, PowerPug, MreFlute, Psyquestor, Forgiveness and Lisaasis. I kept a list of who said they would be there but I didn't get to meet Leem, MsMoody or LaurieinMass.
But you three, if you saw me in a law enforcement uniform talking with a group of women and being introduced and making introductions then those were the people from this board or I was letting people know about this website. Oh yeah, I was able to ask John a question about Ramtha, which was very important to me as I have been reading this entity musings for about 17 years and whenever I asked a so called psychic over the years about Ramtha they always got scared and said they could not answer. But John knew of whom I was speaking and the processing of information. That was a validation for me.
Psyquestor...Angelina recognized me from Albany as she was there too and quickly introduce me to the others that was standing in line waiting (good looking out Angelina!!!). I posted something on this board real quick from my laptop on the way there (cell phone hookup with laptop in car), that I would be in uniform because only the Lord knows I definitely had no time to change once again. That is how I met PowerPug who looked for me and then DelusionalBlond who happened to read the posting before leaving for the seminar and out on the stakeout wanting to be handcuff:lwink: So she indicated.:) That was a good meeting of people who have never met before from this board if I ever saw one. Time for SLEEP, but I will return with the postings of the readings.
Druid, congrats on the reading! Awesome! :thumbsup:

I was making another posting ( the one previous to this one) when I noticed you have posted a reply. I am really wondering how your dad felt about this. You mentioned you asked your mother, but I get this intensity regarding your father. He appears not to be an emotional type fellow and more of like a skeptic. But I am wondering if you do not mind, how is he feeling about this, this morning? Has it had time to process the information? Did he believe? He doesn't seem like the expressive type. I just get this feeling that he is ...... I can't explain, kinda of maybe rigid in his thinking? I was sitting off to the the left of you and I could just sense it in his posture while John was doing the reading. I mean your Dad's dad wasn't going away and letting John off the hook. It seem to mean so much that his spirit got through to your dad. I still feel that energy regarding your father. Have you been able to talk to him yet? Would he talk to you about what happened yesterday? My suggestion to you is listen carefully to what your father explains to you when he is ready, because I have a strong feeling that there is more to come.
Even though my new found friend who had the Tommy reading and I talked a while before her reading and I have never even met you, let alone talked to you before. I have more intensity and I don't know why, regarding your family's reading that there is definitely more to come, so keep you antennae high in the air and this is surrounding your father.
I am so pleased you got a reading, Druid65. I added your name to the on-going list of readings of members from here. I know very well the impact John has on you when he is reading you and it doen't wear off with time.:) Stephanie, I'm also adding you for the Houston seminar. Our list keeps getting longer. Love it!:D

Oh, yes, Tashi... You are right on the nose about everything. My dad is very rigid (at least that's how he portrays himself outwardly, but not who I know him to be. I really haven't had a chance to talk with him this morning as he was still in bed when I dropped off the kids with my mom. (She brings them to school for me.)
I did see you and remember the Ramtha question. (((belated hugz)))
I think there is definitely more to come too. Here's why the timing of this reading was SO significant. My father's brother (my uncle) who lives in Colorado is coming to stay with my parents at the end of this month for a family event for my uncle's wife. My father and my uncle don't really talk too often, and they have NEVER stayed at my parents house. So there is something significant that is going to come out of this. Not sure what yet. On the drive home I mentioned to my Dad about my Uncle coming and to make sure that he told this all to him. That the timing was important. My Dad was hesistant but agreed he would, but didn't know how receptive his brother would be to this.
There had been a rift some years ago with the family, not between the brothers but with the sisters (Rebecca - Loretta/"RETTA" ) who was mentioned and my Aunt Irene also passed, so maybe that why she popped in.
I definitely want to sit down with my dad this afternoon and ask him more. He was driving on the way home last night (and as usual we got lost coming home) so I didn't want to distract him any more.
Pretty amazing your trek between Albany and Boston. Are you making it a triple feature in Providence. We'll be there.
*BIG BIG HUGZ*
I'll keep you posted on what happens.
BTW... My family doesn't know this. I've sorta kept a secret from them. I have an appointment next week with a Hypnotherapist for a Past Life Regression. (Interesting that was brought up in Q & A) I'm really excited now. Wonderng at the timing of it with the proximity of the reading. I'll keep you posted.
Love,

Congratulations again Druid & to your folks too!! I wish all of you on JEF.org could've had my seat: I sat next to FarmerKathy, Druid's dad was getting read right behind her, and (being in the 2nd row) John was at the corner of the stage, not 20 feet away!
It'll be interesting to hear any followup regarding the Romanian/"communist" connection....after the seminar Kathy checked the tag on Fred (the teddy bear), just in case it had been made there. Alas it wasn't, but wouldn't *that* have been cool..
This was just an extraordinary seminar in so many ways, even before it began. Seeing many of the New Haven attendees, plus several other regular posters here, just made it feel like a family gathering. Something else struck me, seeing John this second time: Aside from his gift, he's developed an excellent speaking ability, weaving past stories (and lessons learned from them) and depictions of the "process" into a coherent presentation, replete with humor and illustrating how it all fits together. Add to that the presence of actually seeing this unfold in person, and the seminars take on a quality unmatched by CO on television, no matter how many shows you watch.
As Druid mentioned, John's metaphor of the birthday party/cake is worth keeping in mind....and I feel as if I was given a rather big piece! Thanks everyone for helping make the day as special as it turned out to be!

:jumper: Boston was a totally awesome experience! We (my hubby, our friend & me, were seminar virgins) - and it was a fabulous cake. There was so much to take in, & although I saw Pug talking with Angelina, I didn't get to meet anyone else. Johns energy is unbelievable. Did anyone get the name of the book the lady from Florida mentioned? How about the one John suggested? :confused: (Senior Ears!!!!) Thanks..

Hi Angelsmailroom and Welcome!!
You may be thinking of the book Second Chances by Suzanne (sp?) Northrop.
Yes we did check Freddies tag but he wasn't made in Romania. Now that would of been something!! My family is kinda like "why didn't you say something Ma" but John is so unnerving when he's doing his "dog with a bone" thing:) . But we all feel like Ray did make a cameo appereance which is exactly what he did before. (Maybe I shouldn't of raised him with such manners:) ). All in all it was a great seminar.
I love meeting everybody from the group. Thanks Pam because none of us would know each other if it wasn't for you:) .
One of John's stories was about his totem. He said when he was young he would wake up in the middle of the night and see a wolf in his bedroom. He would call out--very quietly not to scare the wolf-- " Mom there is a wolf in my bedroom".
She'd reply "John we live in Queens. There are no wolves"
Many years later he went to see a medium and she referred to his totem, the wolf because she could see it next to him.
He believes that he blocked out his totem because he was a kid and his Mom said there was no wolf.
I love his stories because they just make him more likeable, like the guy next door!!

I just had to tell you all what has happened SINCE Sunday (Boston Seminar).
My sister called me yesterday to tell me something bizarre happened. I braced myself, because after JE... *deep breath* I didn't know WHAT to expect!
She said after she had gotten home from the seminar she told her husband all about what happened and that my Dad had been read. He was very happy for her and the family. When he was getting ready for bed he went into the bedroom and began to scream, my sister ran in to the bedroom to see and hear a music box that had been my grandmother's with a statue of the Virgin Mary on it playing the tune "Immaculate Mary". My sister checked the interlock and it was still in the locked position. She then called my mother and told her about it. (My mother WANTED her mother to come through at the seminar and was disappointed that she didn't - What did John say about his working so hard to do this and families STILL wanting more??)
Now, remember John SAID to my mother, "You HAVE and Aunt Mary don't you?" I told my mom that I believe her mother WAS there and she made sure that the message got delivered. Thus through "Immaculate Mary"!!! I also asked her if she realized the full ramifications of what had happened at the seminar. We got a specific message meant for our family that we DO survive death!!!! The forgiveness she is looking for from her mother is NOT necessary. I told her that her mom loves her SO much that she gave her that separate message. With love no forgiveness is needed.
I also talked to my Dad. In fact he called me at quarter to ten last night. Remember, Tashi pointing out that he seemed to be stoic and non-emotional? Well, lets just say last night it hit him full force! He told me with such awe in his voice, "My father is proud of me!" I said, "Yes, Dad, and he loves you so much he wanted the world to know it too!" My father went on about the fact that his father saw the events in his life, even though he had died when he was just 6 yo. He GOT it! I told him to write down what he felt and all that he remembered, so that later (like John said) he can't say that it really didn't happen. I ended the conversation with, "Dad, no matter what, no one can take this away from you!"
I went to bed last night with a smile from ear to ear!!!
Thank you ALL here, over on the other side, and Thank you, Pam for making this available, and of course John (who put the icing on THE CAKE):)

Still searching for Romania...
I think I know what this is. I was also sitting right there, and much of this fit for "me too" but didn't know what to make of the Romania connection. I started to say something but John said " they are not going to get me to say Romania unless it's specific, and means something." Going on to say "it should be obvious" and it wasn't any other communist country ( Which BTW I could validate any other communist country.
My Dad was stationed in many many countries, MOST of them commuinist because of the type of work he did in the Navy.
My mind was racing because everything else at the beginning fit us.
I can say with some assurance that Romania could be 'us' in so many ways. My fiance's grandparents came to this country via Poland during the WWII timeframe. We don't think they were Polish, because of a genetic disease that runs in the family.
I need to do more research but i think that's it. BTW Scott's grandpa is FRANK.
Love,
Tammy

You know, I have been thinking. I know I told LisaAIS and FarmerKathy, that I felt such ENERGY around us (meaning everyone from this board), that I realy felt GOOD. Do you think that John felt ALL the collective energy of us all sitting together. I'm not saying that John isn't good at what he does, but maybe it was all of US pulling for one another and THEY were all there together to give each of us a slice of the CAKE. (I really love that analogy)
Believe me, My family TRIED to avoid the Microphone, but I am so happy for my Dad that he was FORCED to listen.;)

Okay, got it.
Frank, ( my fiance Scott's grandfather was Hungarian. ) His other grandfather Joe ( two men side by side, not related, connected -- J or G ) is the one who was "Polish" but we don't think so. We think he's jewish, which expains the unique way he spelled his "polish" last name. Scott thinks the romanian connection is probably Frank.
Joe's father was Micheal. ( Mike name over and over during reading ).
Pilot: Scott is a pilot, and was also in the service as an airplane mechanic. ( They are connected to the pilot )
3 and 1. Three the same one different: I have four children, one with Scott.
M, Marie or Mary: Scott's baby sister who passed. He delivered her. ( 17 years older than her, and an EMT at that time )
Baby Son on the other side: Me, I lost a baby... a boy. ( None of you knew that, so I asked for that validation as a sign it was them. It was the first thing JE said, and I thought He was pointing at me, but we were all grouped together.)
Diabetes and toe: Frank lost his whole foot to Diabetes, his brother died from Diabetes, starting off with losing his toe, then his foot then his leg.....too late...died from gangreen.
WWII war time: See Joe above who came to this country during the war or shortly after.
No Rebecca, Ruth for us.
None of this made any sence for us until I spoke to Scott. It was all his family references, aside from my baby boy.
I hope you aren't offended or take this the wrong way Druid, it was all for your Dad, John said so! I stayed quiet through out knowing that some was for us... Little did I know how much.
Love and Validations,
Tammy

Driving home from the seminar Sunday, I realized that I felt better than I had in some time. I'd been rather down in the dumps over the previous month or so, but the energy (or however you wish to describe it) of our group, and of John, just seemed so uplifting. 2 days later I still feel better.
I think it's interesting that members from our group (or close relatives) got read both in New Haven and Boston, and that both times the readings occurred where several of us were located near one another. With over 1000 people in each gathering, what were the odds? John talked about the "hula hoop" of energies when reading persons in the audience, and we may well be increasing our odds of one of our group getting read by seating ourselves near one another.

P.S. Cool validation about Aunt Mary, Druid -- thanks for passing that along!!!

How WONDERFUL for you!!! I am so happy that you recognized some of the messages and could validate them, especially your baby boy (((Tam)))
The "me too"/"messages" happened for you and you were there to receive them!! Love it!!
I love how this process works. Communicating on this site, appreciating each other from here, validating each other by meeting at a seminar and watching it unfold......just meant to be.

One of John's stories was about his totem. He said when he was young he would wake up in the middle of the night and see a wolf in his bedroom. He would call out--very quietly not to scare the wolf-- " Mom there is a wolf in my bedroom".
I was the person who asked him about that LOL
It was My Mom tha had the expeience with the Bear...
Just thought I would put tha in :lwink:

Druid, I lost it when I read that. How wonderful and how beautiful! I'm sure it's the moments like these that keep JE going - they are priceless.
Rearding "me, too!" - Tammy, Kathy, and anyone else who may have gotten a validation, congratulations! Sometimes that's just the way it works.
A teenaged boy came through very briefly a little more than halfway through our reading (back in 2000). That was the only thing in our lengthy reading that did not make complete sense to us. His parents were seated behind us and did not speak up because even part of his validation fit us. Afterwards, they spoke to us and we all know that message was definitely for them.
We were all so happy for them, that they were able to recognize the validation as theirs, and it cleared up the only mystery we had.

Chrissy,
That was awesome! I loved hearing John share that story and your story as well!. I had never heard John talk about animal totems outside of his tapes. That was such a great question!
Maybe I'm sounding a little haughty here, and I don't mean to, but don't you just want to say sometimes "Just read his books!" I know that's petty and we're all at different stages of our journeys.
I also enjoyed John's tangent when answering your question about that those who are about to pass do see animals and people on the other side and do talk about them. I think this comforted my mom, as my grandmother called out to relatives prior to her passing.
I have always believed that we are all connected. That you for giving THAT gift to my mom! (from your mom :) )
It just keeps getting better and better!!!!
Blessings,
Druid
((((Tammy)))) I've added your name to the reading list with Farmer Kathy's as "me toos". It does seem that lately we generate more energy when we meet each other at the seminars and know where we are all sitting. I would not have known Jhoelle and VeMoore were being read if I hadn't met them first.

((((Tammy)))), (((Kathy))), (((Everybody)))!!!
I woke up this morning and I couldn't get online fast enough. It was as if a lightbulb went off in my head.
Remember, I was sitting at the end of the infamous "3rd row" and John asked ME, "Who did you come with". Well, I guess I had a case of the Sophia's because I pointed to JUST my family seated beside me in the 3rd row.
BUT.... I DID come with ALL of you!!!! We all made a conscious effort to sit together! As a matter a fact, I told my family to "follow them" (meaning you guys) when the line started to move to go into the ballroom.
What I guess I'm trying to point out is that we are all "responsible" for each other when we sit together as a group. In the futureo we have to try to remember to "claim" that we ALL came together!!!
Again, A BIG TY to all my FRIENDS, "Everywhere"

ok...I forgot to post this but I wanted to share my NEAT thing that happened in Boston...
Well, Obviously it was just AWESOME but remember how we all were held in that room before we were let into the ball room??
Well...first alittle background...My Mom was a HUGE Quilter....We joked that the "Keepsake Quiting Catalog" was her bible for the longest time...That and if ya asked her how she was she would always say "Sew Sew" My reply was always "No Ma..Not WHAT your doing...HOW your doing" Ok back to that room..
When I got to the doors to give the lady my ticket...I looked down. Which is something that was odd because normally I would be so darn excited I would be peeking into the ballroom. Well...right there on the floor at my feet was the Keepsake Quilting Catalog"!!! Not a doubt that it was a sign for me...
My Brothers do not believe in the whole process and I dont push them to but the moment I got home my older brother Mike (B4 I told him anything" said..."I asked Mom to give me proof"...SO I told him about everything and then about the catalog....He was floored...Then told me that once a year he took Mom there...it was there special thing to do...they made a day of it.
SO...Like John said...you just have to be open to the process...
Just thought I would share!~ :jumper:

"Sew Sew" -- I love that! Chrissy, I think you got your validation and it sounds like you may soon have another believer in your family, your brother Mike.

Thanks for pointing that out Druid!:) John's always asking people in the gallery who they came with and saying that they're all one family to him, but I hadn't really connected that with the seminars. If we sit together we become one big family!:D
Hi Tammy, did you know that the western part of Romania used to belong to Hungary?! So maybe that's how your fiance's grandfather came through with Romania. Do you know what city was he from?

I'm not sure where his grandfather originally lived in Hungary. I've been searching on Ancestry dot com for immigration records. Frank's first wife was a "gypsy" which someone tells me that they are from Romania. I thought they were 'homeless' and wanderers...they didn't teach that in Geography class.
Anyway, I'm sure that Frank is the Romanian tie.

We have a Romania connection:)
My girlfriend, Debbie finally got to talk to her daughter, Elizabeth (She's sorry it too so long--she was getting awful sick of talking to her answering machine)
Elizabeth's great grandparents were from Romania on her Dad's side of the family. Debbie knew they were from the "old country" but just not sure what country. If I remember right? thats when he was talking about a son coming thru and F name also.
Plus as another "me too" I had bought Debbie's ticket for her birthday present last winter when they had gone on sale. So with Tammy's Dad's birthday being that day, Druid's tickets being presents also we just had so much in common.
With all of the me too's I definately think the energy from JE friends is a bonus helping everyone's family to come thru. With Druid's dad having his Dad come thru. I think that is so neat, since he was so young when his Dad crossed.
What a day:)

Hey Neighbor!!
So that was you!! I was way in the back of the room...knew I wouldn't get there early enough to be up front with the crew, but I am so glad you (and apparently everyone you were sitting with) got a reading ;)! John was awesome as usual. I am happy for you!
Thanks for sharing (and the tickets!)
