Deaf Links

Prior to 1982, deaf resources were somewhat limited. All of this changed when the first Commodore 64 was introduced in 1982 and at long last a computer which was within financial reach of the average person became available. When Marc Andressen and Eric Bina at NCSA developed the Mosaic browser, graphics replaced text commands or instructions.

The links contained on our site are the direct result of the efforts of those mentioned and many more. For their work we are thankful.

A picture is still in my mind of Grandmother Lancaster and Uncle Miller sitting on a garden bench talking to each other in sign language.  Both seemed to happy, yet not speaking a word.  As an eight year old I wanted to "talk" too.

That early childhood encounter led me to experience wonders only imagined as a youth and realized as a young adult.
