Dearest Readers:

Today is Tuesday, May 2, 2017. On this date, May 2, 2012, I lost my precious, beloved Prince Marmaduke Shamus. Today is the fifth anniversary of his loss. How I miss him.

Please, if you are a lover of animals, or an animal advocate, take the time today to show them your love and appreciation for their life. On the morning I lost Shamus, I had no idea he was dying. On his wellness check-up in February, I was told he was in good health. How quickly his health declined.

Today is the anniversary of his loss and the eight week anniversary of losing our precious little Sir Shakespeare Hemingway. Now they are together and I look forward to seeing them again in Heaven.

May God grant me strength today, just to make it through the sadness and the tears. How I miss and love my Prince Marmaduke…
