Player Spotlight – RiverVon

 

 

 

 

 

First name: Yvonne

Screen name: RiverVon

Tell us a little bit about yourself :

I am a single southern who loves to sew, write poetry, sing, and of course I am a southern cook. I love to make quilts, meet new people and laugh. You can find me often singing song lyrics in rooms

I love people who are down to earth and honest. I love the Lord. I find that getting up each day is a gift from God, and I try to help others. I used to think you really had to do something big to get God’s attention, but find that simple acts of kindness are just as big as moving mountains in God’s eyes.I often take plates of food to others and make quilts for those who are less fortunate.I am retired and am enjoying every minute of it!

 

Life is a gift, and living it to the fullest is my goal. Hope to talk to you soon if you see me roaming around in Pogo as I love making new friends.

  • Hi, RiverVon:

    It is always a pleasure to see the people we may be playing or chatting with. I do not recall ever having had the pleasure of playing or chatting with you, but I look forward to doing so one of these days. You grabbed my heart and attention when you said you love the Lord. There are not very many who openly do so on this site.

    Thank you for sharing.

  • Welcome Yvonne… Sit in a tree and throw fake snow huh? lol Pretty tame… most people would be little stinkers..
    So your a Dolly Pardon fan… so is my husband. We disagree on who sings her song “I will always love you” better. He says its Dolly… I say it was Whitney Houston. Anyway… welcome.
