Del,
 
I'm so sorry to hear about both of your losses.  I know you must be going through a bad time right now adjusting.  I'm sure it's comforting to know that your friend Liz will be there for Effie though.  I'm sure you have other fur angels who will be there as well for Liz and Effie.  Take care of yourself.

  Weep, and weep well, for our losses, though

  For they have gone to a placewhere blind eyes can

  healthy, and whole once more.
   
  Flesh and bonemay wither and die, but the

  They may be gone,  yet they're with us still. 
  In our hearts and thoughts, and in our daily lives.
   
  Comforting us.
   
  Guiding us.
   
  And patiently waiting for the day
   when we come home to them once more, 
   with Our youth and health restored.
   
  Weep, and weep well, for our lossesfor it shows

  Celebrate their livesby living ours to the

I am really sorry for your loss. It is so hard to lose a good friend. I noticed in another email you mentioned that it was like Effie was there with you. I do believe that those times that you see them out of the corner of your eye or sense them walk by -that they are really there with you in spirit, watching over you happliy.

Dear Del,
 
How sorry I am to hear that Effie has left you.  We all know how hard it is; the hardest thing in life, it seems.  She's free of pain and happy now, surely with your friend Liz.  I'm sorry for your loss of Liz, as well, but I hope you can find comfort in knowing they are together and in the special memories you have of each of them.
 
Sending a big, big hug your way. Take care of yourself.

Del

    Please accept my heartfelt condolences in the passing of your
precious Effie.  She was so fortunate to have your forever, loving home
and you were fortunate to have her loving, precious presence to add
wonderful things to your life.  They all teach us something I am sure. 
I know that my life is always richer for loving and caring for a
precious being who nobody else wants.  Please accept my sympathy in the
loss of your good friend, Liz.  I, too, had a wonderful friend named
Liz who passed on last week.  She was a bright, intelligent, animal
loving free spirit who touched everyone she ever met.  I'm sure your
friend Liz was the same to you.  Isn't it wonderful that she can be
there at the Bridge to show Effie the ropes while they both await your
arrival?  Effie and Liz are truly 'Shining New Angels."  I hope the
following helps somewhat to ease your grief.

Listen closely..

  S..
  there!
  did you hear that?
  just the softest rustle.
  a little breeze
  just barely moving the leaves
  on that tree over there?
  No..
  close.but somehow not.
  The sound,
  more felt than heard
  when you walk barefoot
  thru soft grass in summer?
  No..
  This was even more wonderful
  than those
  yet, sad too
  as it will never be heard
  again..this way
  The sound of a shining new angel
  taking flight

Del, I am so very sorry for Effie’s
passing – I am sure that there isn’t really any words which can
totally heal your pains – and I am crying with you though I don’t
anything about Effie, but I know that she was and is such a special soul for
you.

 

I read a poem one time somewhere –
it says something like “if a life is a journey, death is our destiny”
– which brought me a very interesting perspective about “life”
and death – We are all on the way to our destiny, and some gets there
sooner than others – we want lives of our beloved animals to be as long
and enjoyable possible – but eventually, we are all going to go to the
same place (in my mind) – I am hoping that all my animals who left me
first are waiting for me there if they did not already come back as another
life – it’s certainly more difficult for us who are left here to
deal with the pain than the ones who leave us perhaps – but please know
that Effie’s is at a better place now, where there is no more pain –
but her soul is still here with you – and she knows you love her and you
miss her, and she returns you the same.

 

Hugs,

 

Hideyo

I just joined this group so I do not know any of you
too good but I definitely know the heartache of losing
a kitty after their final battle.  I know it may seem
hard now but you have to think of the wonderful thing
you did for this companion.  Although Effie's life was
short, to have someone who loves her and grieves for
her made a huge impact on her life.  Their is nothing
we can do to kill this virus but the love we have for
these kitties creates a memory in our hearts that
lives on.
