  Bunny Barnstar (sans Barnstar)
Thank you for your service and hard Wikipedia work. I hope you and your family and friends are okay, considering everything that has happened in Puerto Rico.

Take care of yourself first so you don't burn out on WP & the Commons! I like your essay on your Commons page and your pictures of historical buildings in Pheonix. I'm sure I'd like more if I looked around a bit more.

We need more people like you around here, so...bring in more people like you as fast as rabbits reproduce? I dunno. I just like bunnies. Heh! Geekdiva (talk) 16:05, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

This barnstar is given to my father for being one of only two people to stay at the hospital everytime I had an emergency (the other one, my mom is not a wikipedian) for being an essential part of my life and loving me so much. Also, for being a fervent writer about Puerto Rican culture at Wikipedia, an invaluable addition so that people around the world can learn more about our country. {Antonio No al Matrimonio Martin}
