    We are so sorry to hear about your loss. I know she is in a better place and happy now. We will miss our friend. You all know she is where she has wanted to be for a long time. I am sure even Bear is at the Rainbow Bridge to meet her. She is free of pain and can walk again on her own. Wish we could be there to give you a hug and tell you how sorry we are. Everyone will be in our thoughts and prayers. Please place a crochet hook with her from a friend who will miss her dearly. Love Jim and Linda
