Guest Snowy8 Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOOL, TODAY IS YOUR 9TH BIRTHDAY...I HOPE YOU'RE HAVING A LOT OF FUN AT THE BRIDGE WITH ALL THE NEW FRIENDS THAT YOU'VE MET SINCE YOU LEFT HERE FEBRUARY 28, 2003 6:15AM. YOU WERE JUST 7 YEARS OLD...AND YOU HAD ONLY LIVED WITH ME FOR 3 YEARS...YOU WERE FINE ONE DAY AND SICK THE NEXT... YOU CAME TO ME ON DECEMBER 18TH (DEAR'S BIRTHDAY)...IT WAS COLD & RAINING...I HAD SEEN YOU RUN THE TRACK UNDER THE WATCHFUL EYE OF ALLAN HARRELL AT BECKNER KENNELS. YOU WERE A CHAMPION AT SOUTHLAND & MADE a lot OF MONEY. YOU STOLE ALLAN'S HEART, THE HEARTS OF ALL THE RACING FANS & IN THE END...YOU STOLE MY HEART THE MOST. YOU WERE SO BLACK & SHINEY...YOU LOVED RUNNING IN THE BACKYARD WITH PEGASUS...YOUR BEST FRIEND WHO SAVED YOU THE DAY YOU FELL IN THE ICEY LAKE....YOU MADE ME LAUGH WITH THE CLACKING OF YOUR TEETH WHEN YOU WANTED SOMETHING & MAKING EVERYONE HOWL IN THE EARLY HOURS OF THE MORNING BEFORE I WENT TO WORK. THE DAY YOU DIED...IT BROUGHT BACK MEMORIES OF WHEN SADIE-GREY DIED TOO...BUT I KNOW SHE WAS WAITING AT THE BRIDGE AS DR. BLACKBURN HELPED YOU ACROSS. THE NEXT DAY, WHEN I MET DEAR...IT WAS AS IF JAN HAD HID YOU IN THE BACK KENNEL TO SURPRISE ME, IT WAS AS IF YOUR SPIRIT JUMPED FROM YOUR BIG HEART INTO DEAR'S BIG HEART & HE HAS HELPED ME SO MUCH THESE 18 MONTHS...THANK YOU FOR HIM. I STILL HAVE MEMORIES OF YOU IN MY HEART & I SHARE STORIES ABOUT YOU ALL THE TIME. I STILL HAVE PEOPLE COME UP & ASK ME IF I STILL HAVE THE GREYHOUND THAT FELL IN THE ICEY LAKE & THE ONE THAT SAVED HIM...I HAVE TO TELL THEM THAT YOU ARE WITH GOD & PEGASUS IS STILL WITH ME. I MISS YOU TERRIBLY... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Greymom Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 Hugs. No matter how much time goes by it doesn't ease the hurt with losing a beloved member of the family. Run free sweet Boo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
