In Memory of Tigger

In Memory of a Beloved Pet
Tigger
April 1999 - December 15, 2011

Tigger stopped eating and started having difficulty breathing a few days ago and on Wed. appeared to be in pain. Took him to the vet on Thurs. and after blood work and xrays, they found multiple masses in his chest and abdomen, fluid in and around his lungs and around his stomach and air in his stomach. The vet felt it was probably cancer and treatment would not help him at this point, as even if they drew the fluid out, it would probably return. He was stressing so bad while there, they had to put him in a makeshift oxygen tent. It was decided that letting him go was in his best interest and to stop his suffering. He will be greatly missed. He was very dear to us.

In Loving Memory of Mom

Today is the 1st anniversary of my mother's passing. She has and always will be greatly missed, but I have some wonderful memories to keep me going.
Mom and Dad (2008)
Elizabeth Ann Prather
June 4, 1936 - Jan. 1, 2010
When going thru some of mom's things when preparing for her memorial, I found this prayer among some of her things and meant to read it at the memorial, but decided on some other things instead, but would like to share it now. I thought it was fitting since she passed on Jan. 1st.
A New Year's Prayer for Peace
Dear Lord,
Let this be a year
that moves us
one step closer
to each other.
Let this be a year
that brings us
understanding in our hearts.
Let this be a year
that fills us
with a yearning
burning feeling
for peace with one another
and a oneness, Lord, with You!
