Guest CampWhippet Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 You kept an eye over so many fosters and were such a great leader to them, all 100+ of them. I will think about you everyday Ken-Teeeeeee..... Carbry Waltz on Greyhound-Data.com[big][big] About an hour ago Kent was running around the backyard playing with one of the fosters and he literally dropped dead. Shawn walked over to him and his heart was pounding through his chest rapidly, he took a few breaths and was gone. She called me and I came home but there was nothing either of us could do. Here's a picture of the day I got him in March of 2005. More pictures to follow when I feel better[/big][/big]. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest d0ggiem0mma Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I am so sorry for you and Shawn. The sudden loss of a family member is difficult... at least Kent did not suffer and he spent his last moments happy and loved. He could not have asked for a better family. My thoughts are with you.
