" Heirlooms of WWPFG "

Hello everyone ,

For the 1st few post I focused on My list for the 26

" Heirlooms of WWPFG "the pioneers of the Guild. The Guild began in 2001,

I tried to do a top 10 list and knowing the history of the guild it was hard to stop at 26 which was to the end of 2002.

Being in the Ex Com for so long I have seen the effects of our Heirlooms more than most.

We have the nice page on the website for the Founders of the Guild http://wwpfg.org/exec/founders/index.htm but the other back-bones need to be recognized too!

Below is a list of the members who started in the beginning of the guild . They had a dream of growing a garden of pressers , creating and sharing around the world. Sticking it out through all the weeding and thorns of making WWPFG a glorious place to be.

I am posting this list and tagging it Heirloom as I will each of the Heirlooms Interviews as they come in.

If you search in the Label section all of the Heirlooms will be gathered together like a bouquet of interviews .

I will turn the name green when their interview is

published here .
