Guest PiagetsMom Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) Jan, my heart aches for you. You and Pal were so lucky to had each other for so many good years - you gave him much love and a wonderful life at Camp Greyhound, and he gave you his love and trust in return. I'm so very sorry that you had to say goodbye to your special boy Edited October 4, 2012 by PiagetsMom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandimom Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Jan, this is one remembrance I should have read at home instead of at work. All of us feel we knew Pagliaccio through your stories and his stories. A beautiful tribute to a beautiful soul. I will watch the video tonight. Kleenex anyone???? Godspeed Pal and may the wind always be at your back sweet boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gotgr8hnds Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Jan, I just finished reading your tribute to Pal and viewing your video and photos...........Such loving and beautiful tributes to your heart dog --- my eyes are still crying as I write you this note. Pal touched so many lives in his time on this earth and his memory will live on in the hearts of everyone who knew him. He was a special boy with a very tender heart and I'm so thankful that he found you and spent all those years in your loving forever home. Our world's a better place because he was in it. My thoughts and prayers are with you...... May all your memories help to soothe your aching heart. ~~Sweet Pal, with your tender heart, may you 'kick up the wind' and run on the wings of angels~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
