"Lonesome Dove"
aka Rascal My heart and soul, my strength. Your honesty,
your courage, your devotion and your ability to offer 110% in all weathers
where qualities not easily found...in any species.
This rescue is for
you. May it grow as fast as an Amaryllis and blossom as boldly so you see
from Heaven that I remain crushed without you. Be there as I arrive,
E Rascally Rabbit. Tell me you are proud.

The intensity of the
love shared between Reebok and his soulmate Joyce can be felt to this day.
Love does not die. The ones we lose here on earth will be waiting for us
in Heaven where all that remains is the LOVE. In their honor and for those
who have passed before us, we must comfort another being. That is what
they would have us do.
God Bless you and keep you Reebok. Your mom has comforted MANY in your
honor. Be proud.

Dallas...It
is with the heaviest heart I bring the news that Aamin (Dallas), our "Schnarkles"
has crossed the Rainbow Bridge at the New England Equine Hospital. It is
tragic and deeply heart wrenching. Schnarks had the greatest year of his
life I am sure. He got to wear the BEST, eat the BEST and live in a couple
of the BEST stables around. His adopter was also his sponsor from the
beginning. She saved him with AFER and she said it was Love at first
sight. I am so sorry Coleen.......no horse could ask for more than what
you gave to him.

It is with great
sadness we announce the passing of this mighty Percheron. The day came
that he could no longer raise his great body. It happened on a sunny,
warm day. I fed him his breakfast as he lay in the field. Comanche and
Abraham were with us. The vet arrived and Ben never again tried to rise.
I told him everything he was never told. I told him how awesome a horse
he was, how he enabled an Amish family to survive, how he was needed and
respected and how much he was deeply loved. He understood and listened
intently. I told him of where he was going and how the rainbow bridge was
where he would regain all his lost strength and vigor. He would gallop
free again and his mighty heart would be happy. I told him that God would
meet him as he entered Heaven and the words he would hear would be "Well
done, my faithful servant" and God would (((HUG))) him.

Our earthly life
serves a purpose. All we do, all we meet are eternally affected.
Some live very long lives and complete a long term project set out for
them the day the spirit of life was breathed into them. Some live a
short time on this earth before moving onwards and upwards, but their life
was no less dynamic and purposeful. Sometimes Heaven requires the
assistance of a particular spirit for reasons unknown to us. Perhaps
a job needs doing that can only be completed from above. As we enter
the hereafter, all our questions will be answered.....by the loved ones
gone before us. Until then, in their honor keep their memory alive
so they may look down and smile, for they too will be missing us.

You're giving
me a special gift,
So sorrowfully endowed,
And through these last few cherished days,
Your courage makes me proud.
But really, love is knowing
When your best friend is in pain,
And understanding earthly acts
Will only be in vain.
So looking deep into your eyes,
Beyond, into your soul,
I see in you the magic that will
Once more make me whole.
The strength that you possess,
Is why I look to you today,
To do this thing that must be done,
For it's the only way.
That strength is why I've followed you,
And chose you as my friend,
And why I've loved you all these years...
My partner till the end.
Please, understand just what this gift
You're giving, means to me,
It gives me back the strength I've lost,
And all my dignity.
You take a stand on my behalf,
For that is what friends do.
And know that what you do is right,
For I believe it, too.
So one last time, I breathe your scent,
And through your hand I feel,
The courage that's within you,
To grant me this appeal.
Cut the leash that holds me here,
Dear friend, and let me run,
Once more a strong and steady dog,
My pain and struggle done.
And don't despair my passing,
For I won't be far away,
Forever here, within your heart,
And memory I'll stay.
I'll be there watching over you,
Your ever-faithful friend,
And in your memories I'll run,
... a young dog once again.
(((HUGS
LINDA)))
