Re: [pyrnet] My beautiful boy is gone

[Julie Johnston <raven4luck@adelphia.net>]

Your message brought tears to my eyes as well and brought back remembrances
of my own losses.  There are no words to express the pain of losing a
treasured pet.  Beau is at the bridge waiting now with many other treasured
pets.
