RIP Golden 15 November 2014

Postby Sharon Brent » Sun Nov 15, 2015 10:02 am

As the body decays and the memories fade,
The anger grows and the fury rises
The injustice and disbelief can not be subdued
Cancer can be a killer,
But the Loneliness and Depression
Of those left behind can sometimes seem worse
Than Death itself
The emptiness and loss can only be filled
By the Love of Family & Friends
And my faith in God
Good Bye my Beloved Golden
May you fly like a bird with the Angels
At Peace with the Lord

That is a wonderful tribute to your beloved Golden.

I really used to worry about you Sharon, when you first started posting. You seemed so lost and alone.
I'm really proud of the way you have managed to take care of yourself and yours girls since Golden's passing.
You're a strong person. Hope you and the girls are well.

Best Wishes, peanut
