Diane, I am so sad to read this news of Sarge passing. It is never easy to lose a pet, especially one as admirable as Sarge. You gave him the best life he could have ever had and he will always be with you....Best of luck to you as you greive for your friend. Megan | |

Dear Diane, I am so sorry to be only catching up with your loss now......I was offline all last week while my grandchildren were here. I am so sorry about Sarge. Where would we all be without him and without you? How much you have done for all of us because of him. We are all so grateful for both of you. I know the rough road you have been on. You have taken such wonderful care of him. You were certainly a gift to him as he was to you. He is with you always. Know that we are with you as you grieve and heal. Barb | |
