And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;...

I'm so sorry to hear that. We have lost many canine and feline companions over the years and it never gets any easier.

Sorry for your loss. I'm sure your companion was loved and will be remembered. And in the end, all there is in existence is love and the memory of love. :sad:
