Farewell Darby!
It is with a sad heart that I must post a tearful goodbye to Darby. Ch. Windcrest Pilgrim's Pride. Darby crossed over to the Rainbow Bridge on Tuesday, April 24th. I remember fondly the day he was born. I remember Mary Elizabeth and I sitting vigil for the whelping with Chinese Food and a movie. I remember Miracle, his mom, having a bit of a hard time. We put Andrea Boccelli's "Sacred Arias" on the cd player and had low lighting to keep her calm. I remember the first puppy being 'stuck' and having the vet on the phone. It was too late to get her in for a c-section as the puppy was partially out, with the sac off of its face. Mary Elizabeth held her head as the vet guided me through getting the puppy out. Poor Miracle! To this day I still can't believe she didn't bite Mary Elizabeth through the process. Darby and his littermates all grew to be strong and happy puppies. We are so fortunate to have Darby behind some of our Reinwood Corgis. He was a lovebug and all boy. Mary Elizabeth and Darby. Run free Darby Dog! We will love you forever and a day! xo xo CS

Feel for you all Cat. We lost our Jake a month ago, one week shy of his 12th birthday. We buried him in the back yard encircled with fieldstones and we say goodnight to his glowing solar light each nite. They're all loves, aren't they? They give us all and take what we give. Bless 'em.
My heart aches for you, Cathy. I know too well that sadness you're feeling at Darby's passing. Know that others share your grief and that we're promised to be reunited with all our loved ones some day.
Thinking of you and sending healing hugs your way.
xoxo
