Re: Courtney
"The Courtney Effect"... effect...a verb meaning to effect or to influence. Courtney I did not know you but "The Courtney Effect" lives on. I believe I speak for many on this site...you all know what I mean. How can someone we never met have such an "effect" on so many? You were a champion dear Courtney wishing you Eternal Life to you in Heaven Courtney...you deserve it!
