Re: For the love of, loss of and example of pets

Oh!  Dearest Raynbo!  You have brought me to tears.......  again.

I have received several emails describing the same experiences and I had one myself and now I am certain it was Heidi.

Immediately after the accident I thought that she should be buried at the pasture.  But the pasture is not mine and I didn't want to be forward in suggesting it.  Little did I know that was Tony's same thought.  On putting Heidi's body in the car and driving off, not sure of exactly what we were going to do, Tony said something.  The exact thing that I was thinking.  He mentioned the name of a friend of ours who would help us put Heidi to rest.  And I abruptly stopped the car and said.........  "Are you thinking the same thing I'm thinking?"  And the emotion welled within me to a point that I cannot describe.  And he looked at me and said........  "Yes."  Then I knew that our beloved Heidi would be laid to rest in the pasture that she so loved.

As we arrived at the pasture, Tony got out of the car to get the shovels ready and I had the distinct impression that Heidi was in the back seat, happy, full of anticipation, and wagging her tail.  It was so strong that there was really no mistaking it.  And this brings me comfort.  Our Heidi will always be with us, especially at the pasture.  I know that as we ride the fourwheelers to the pond with Misty and Pepper running by our side that Heidi will be right there joining in the fun.

Thank you so much for sharing your story with us Raynbo.

May God richly bless you.........

With love,

Luella
