It is with a sad heart that I need to share that our wonderful Marie crossed over a few weeks ago. I needed to grieve quietly before posting.. I knew I would do a post in her honor.. She has popped up in photos so many times over the years..
Fitting that her last photo taken (without knowing it would be her last) had her hanging out in the shade of the garden wagon as we were working in the yard.. We had plenty of warning that she was aging rapidly, last fall of 2020 having been the last time she went on a longer away from the farm pack hike..
When it was time, her heart which was always huge and filled with love, was just tired.. She was given a special spot in the garden, where a little sitting area and garden will be created in her honor..
Its flowers are as lovely as she was.. she is missed..
Just another Day on the Farm 
Oh Valerie, I’m so sorry. Hugs, sweet friend.
So sorry for your loss Val, no matter how long they stay with us, it is never enough.
Thank you Silver, so true, somehow 13 years were gone in a blink of a eye..
So sorry for your loss.
(((((hugs)))))
Thank you Crafty.. for your kind words..
I am so sorry. It’s an ache that’s hard to heal. But what a perfect picture she left you to remember her by.
Thank you Maria, I left the same, when I realized that was the last photo we took of just her, it was so perfect. time with her peaple, in her favorite garden, resting in the shade..
I’ll send a hug whenever you need it Val.
Thank you Deb..
Bon Voyage, Marie. 😦 She looks so at peace in that photo.
She was very much in her happy place in that moment.. and it shows.. Thank you widdershins
Our animals mean so much to us, and teach us the pain of letting go.
They really do .. its so hard at times to let them go even when its time.
A simply gorgeous pup in every way. My deepest condolences.
Thank you Pam.. she is missed
