Thank you Becky. I am doing OK. Been talking to a couple of our Loopers a lot, sharing a lot of memories. Also talking about the what-ifs… what if it was me? What would happen to my dogs, that sort of thing.

Henry is going to live with Faith’s dad, Sailboat. Dianne says the poor little guy is totyally lost. Faith and Henry… they were always like one word. Always together, 24/7. She took him everywhere… we got pictures of Henry hiking, floating on a raft in her pool, canoeing, whitewater rafting. He lived a life with his ‘mom’ that any dog would have loved.

It will be a totally different life now with ‘grandpa’. They will have to comfort one another.
