The Loss of a Friend

When one of our family hurts - we all hurt.
Leonie expressed it so well in these words:-.

Pacey is sleeping in heaven tonight. We six walked to the playing fields this afternoon for one last roll in the grass.  As Richard said, we made a family together, two by two by two, and this is the first time we’ve had to subtract one of us.  I’m not the first person to lose a dog, but she is the first dog this person has lost.  Her dignity and stoicism these last few years changed us all. We are consumed with our grief, love and memories.
