I’m so sorry to hear this. I’m sorry to hear about KC, too, but as a devoted dog, it would probably have been her choice to follow her master so quickly rather than be left behind without him. ---

To save a lot of PMs and if you want to do just a little bit of detective work: **Khadaji** ’s birth date (Dec. 1) and his location (Pennsylvania) are listed in his user profile. His first name (Ron) is listed in the OP of this thread. With these three bits of information, you can use the memorial site’s search function to easily find the obituary (at least that’s how I did it yesterday). Hope this helps. ---

> [@lieu](#): > > **Khadaji** just seemed like a really nice fella all the way around. I don’t remember anything but good about him and I hate it when there’s suddenly no way to tell someone that you enjoy their company, personality, judgement, etc. I agree with this all. Goodbye Khadaji. ☹ ---

I’m sorry to hear this news. Although I never paid much attention to the “Whatcha Reading?” threads, I well remember \*\*Khadaji’\*\*s posts in other threads. Rest easy, **Khadaji**.
