-IN LOVING MEMORY of PATRICIA WHITTON-
-Potlitzer Pearl President-
You will remain in our hearts forever...
-March, 2004-
The Potlitzer Pearls are a group of girls,
Some will never see fifty again,
But, being older,
They can be bolder,
And devote quality time to their friends.
The Potlitzer Pearls are polished and fine,
They have their own patina and glow,
One may admire them,
Even desire them,
All were designed and refined long ago.
The Potlitzer Pearls, well matched, but distinct,
They celebrate each other with glee,
A strand of fine pearls,
A band of fine girls,
Imbued with a radiant esprit.

I'd like to invite you to click below and view a very special sumthin' before you move on...
It was written for me by a lady who has given me the name of "BaBa".
I call her "Puddin' and Pie"...
I can't say enough good things about Ginny and no matter where I go,
she always misses me... I just know she does!
Thank You Ginny!

A Call To Arms!
Alert the troops! Rally the Pearls!
One of our own is in trouble,
Attention: Pricey I S P's!
Front and Center! On the Double!
Our resident president, PAT
Has been seized and whisked away,
Thrown into a sterile, white dungeon,
"Hang on, pretty PAT! Be brave!"
The Pearls are drawing up plans,
And plotting their strategies,
They're reading their Manuals and Help Files,
And checking their faculties.
The first Potlitzer out of the paddock
Is a pistol packin' Pearl,
A dowager with a howitzer,
Our BARBIE DOLL - go, girl!
Then, sneaking across the border,
Our FRAN, with the golden pen,
Whose strength is mightier than the sword,
Our secret weapon and friend!
Our ANITA, a Pearl with purpose,
A brave lady on a crusade,
Whose "head is bloodied, but unbowed,"
The hero of our brigade.
And NANCY, our spiritual leader,
Whose words flow like a soft, satin gown,
Facing battle, we Pearls badly need her,
Lest we find ourselves falling face down.
ANAM CARA, our little GABY,
A Pearl whose not quite so free,
Yet the rest of the Pearls assured
Of her sweet love and loyalty.
Somber, serious, sensitive BEV,
Expressing her mind by design,
Her brush revealing her gentleness,
Our Potlitzer Pearl sublime.
Lastly, GINNY, who loves them all,
Claims each Pearl is her own daughter,
But then shyly, slyly admits,
Each girl has a different father.
"So, PAT, hang in there! We're coming!"
HUP! TWO! THREE! FOUR! And we're there!
PRESENT ARMS! - It's time for hugging!
ALL OUT LOVE is now declared!
WE LOVE YOU, PATTI, OUR PEARL OF PEARLS!
Virginia (Ginny) Ellis
Thank You Anita!
Thank You Gaby!
Thank You Nancy!
Thank You Pat!
Some people come into
our lives and quickly go.
Others come into our lives and leave footprints on our hearts
And we are never, ever the same.
