For all our fuzzies that go on before us. And for KD.....
I Loved You Best
So this is where we part, My Friend,
And you'll run on, around the bend,
Gone from sight, but not from mind,
New pleasures there you'll surely find.
I will go on, I'll find the strength,
Life measures quality, not its length.
One long embrace before you leave,
Share one last look, before I grieve.
There are others, that much is true,
But they be they, and they aren't you.
And I, fair, impartial, or so I thought,
Will remember well all you've taught.
Your place I'll hold, you will be missed,
The fur I stroked, the nose I kissed.
And as you journey to your final rest,
Take with you this...I loved you best.

Thanks B...
I stayed up late working with Mike D. learning how to use Dreamweaver for the OCF site and any other sites I may be working on in the near future. I only just turned on the laptop about an hour ago to see Lynn's post. This hurts immensely even though I knew it was coming. He was never mine, but in some way I was his.
Rest In Peace Little Lance.
I love you. I hope to meet you one day...

It's so hard to lose any pet! But this little guy had a special spot in all of us!:wub: May he now be restored in health and be waiting on the bridge to welcome all of our fuzzies when their time comes. We love you little Lancelot!:wub: :wub:

I hope I get the honor of meeting you one day at the bridge Sir Lancelot. You are loved very much by all and will be missed.:angel:
It is sad to know that he is gone from this world, but very satisfying to know he is waiting for us to greet us with all the joy and wild abandon that only a ferret can truly display.

I too was tearing up when I read the poem and as soon as I saw Lance's pic, the tears came rollin' I would die withough my fuzz butts. I read these and want to go hug my babies for still being there. Im so sorry for your loss. :(

I still miss little Lance... Every time I look at the home page at OCF, I get teary. Seeing this today - reminds me of how helping this little guy touched my heart and changed me forever. Support shelter ferrets! Little lives depend on you more than you think!
