Oh, hun. I’m so sorry. Have a hug from me.

I finished carving it today. I still have the wattling to do on the cairn.

What a loving memorial!

Thank you. It’s the lid off an old silverware box. I dunno, it’s…crude. I almost asked my brother to do it, but that didn’t feel proper to me. I carved it using some old tools my late father used. I’m way out of practice. I wish I could’ve made it fancier.

I think your thoughtfulness is more important than being fancy. Or something like that. Hard to put into words.

Rest In Peace, Luke.

i think it’s perfect, and i’m teary-eyed over it.

I’ll have a wee dram in his memory.

You made it by hand, with love, using a loved one’s tools, from your heart, so it’s the best memorial Luke could possibly have. There can be absolutely no doubt that he was a beloved companion.

It’s lovely, Lucy. I’m so sorry for your loss.

That’s a lovely memorial. I’m really sorry for your loss.

We had to let Dyson go today. He was two months shy of 19.

CleverEmi · July 12, 2020, 6:33pm

I’m so sorry.

kxkvi · July 12, 2020, 6:35pm

Franko · July 12, 2020, 9:25pm

kxkvi · July 12, 2020, 10:19pm

Thank you, and everyone here.

Here’s a picture from a few years ago – he loved to get into the pet carrier. Especially when someone else just came home from an exam.
