Dear Adland Friends,
I have enjoyed the AdlandPro Pro Community since September 6th 0f 2005. It has become my favorite stop on the web and hearty thanks goes to Bogdan and staff for putting us first in all that they do. They are working hard to keep us in the fore front of Internet Communities.
I have been very fortunate to have found AdlandPro and have spent countless hours working here and with a special group of friends that have formed Wosat, a marketing and advertising limited liabilty company.
The partners of Wosat began their adventure a year ago during the month of November and have continued working to form our internet business during the last year. During this time we have made a number of friends that became partners when we filed our LLC in the state of Oklahoma. All have worked hard and are rapidly getting final efforts completed on a number of opportunities and products that are going live at this time.
I was very lucky to have met Miss Marilyn L Ali a few months ago when she featured me in her forum "Adlands Weekly Parade of Stars" on 7/8/06. http://community.adlandpro.com/forums/thread/403064.aspx This was quite exciting for me as I was able to meet and grow relationships with a number of new friendships. More fortunate for me Marilyn and I started communicating on a regular basis and our friendship became quite close. As our friendship grew I was chosen "POTW" in John Sanchez's "Person of the Week Forum" a week later 7/16/06. http://community.adlandpro.com/forums/thread/409116.aspx At this point my carpel tunnel was in full bloom as I was busy posting to well wishers and many friends for 2 weeks in a row.
As time passed I returned my attention fulltime to my duties as Executive VP of Wosat. During this time Marilyn and I were spending more time on Skype and growing closer little by little as we shared together for hours. On September 4th Marilyn L Ali was chosen "POTW" in John Sanchez's Forum. Marilyn had been quite active with a number of forums to her credit but had chosen to avoid the limelite but now she was "POTW". http://community.adlandpro.com/forums/thread/450376.aspx Marilyn's forums can be found: http://community.adlandpro.com/go/259882/myForums.aspx Marilyn's typical day includes many hours of service to AdlandPro and to Wosat where she is our Vice President of Marketing and R&D. She is awesome in all that she does and the most important addition to my life to date. On that same day I sprung the question that changed the course of Marilyn's and my life "Always and Forever". http://community.adlandpro.com/forums/450376/2/ShowThread.aspx Marilyn kept us in suspence for a week and accepted my proposal during the Wosat Board Meeting. Oh happy days!
Marilyn arrived in Los Angeles on November 8th and we were married on November 17, 2006 in Ventura, California. This the happiest time in my life and I love Marilyn with all of my heart and she will be there always. We are presently residing together in Thousand Oaks, California and are just now getting back into full swing with Marilyns many forums and our responsibilities in Wosat.

Hi Rick,
I have been busy over the weekend and somehow missed some of the announcements about your wedding.
Please accept my congratulations and best wishes for the new life.
Can we call it an Adlandpro wedding?

On November 21 Joe Buccheri and his staff at TGAMM FM, Maryland hosted an all night, world wide wedding celebration for Marilyn and I. It was a time of great emotion and celebration for Marilyn and I as well as all who attended. This was a first such celebration in history and we would like to thank all of our friends that listened to the broadcast. We were deeply touched by all who wrote emails and congratulations that were presented on air as well as the many gifts and memories that all provided. Our hearts are bound in God's Grace and we thank him for the blessing of each other that he provided for us. We also would like to thank Nan Heering, Marketing Manager, TGAMM radio and Joe Buccheri for all he brought to make this the time of our lives.
Thanks and God Bless,
Rick & Marilyn Martin
