Re: Yup it's hard...

My heart goes out to Gina, George & Judy.

Tony and I of course feel our own special heartache as KayCee & Punch were sweeties.

But I must remind myself that through what may be perceived as a heartwrenching loss - good does come it.  For in our loss of our beloved Brandy & Rudi in December 2001 we gained so much.  In January of 2002 we found Gina & George and in this find - we added to our family Twister, Rhia and soon to be Brandy (2).  In this lovely gift my Beloved Golden Momma Alex got to enjoy some great Golden Fun.  Life was good with her Malamute pals but never so much fun as when Twister joined us.  She went to her peace in February 2002, and now her pals KayCee and Punch have joined in the romping good times.

It is truly a Golden Day.

Tina, Tony, Twister, Rhia & Brandy (2) - who is vacationing with Judy!
