I am so very sorry to hear of Roxy's passing. I know it must have been a heartbreaking moment for you, even if you were mentally prepared.

I suppose I was expecting something to happen to my RB Cody (collie) any day when he had his stroke because he had been in such a bad decline and was at the point he couldn't get up without assistance, was deaf, and very weak and feeble. I knew when I came home and found him having a stroke that his time had come. I found that after he was gone, I truly grieved deeply even though I was prepared, but what I grieved for most were his younger, healthy days. In my mind, that is usually how I think of him, in his younger vibrant days, rather than that last sad year of steady decline.

May your memories be of the happy and healthy times with Roxy, the way she now is again up at the Rainbow Bridge. You have my deepest sympathies.
