I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas...

Losing someone at Christmas is so tough. I hope you and your family will remember that your "Bamster" would want you to celebrate the season in some small way. This will honor the season and his memory. He looks like such a sweetie.

I am so very sorry to hear of your grandfathers passing, and so close to Christmas

Hopefully when everyone gets together you can all tell some good stories about him and have a smile. I'm sure that's what he'd want.

Many (((HUGS))) to you and your family

Last night the moon was full and high up in the sky. Beside it, was a single bright star, the only one out. I noticed it as we were driving to Saskatoon. This morning we received a call that Jersey had run away last evening, and they hadn't told us until this morning as they didn't want to upset us.

Thankfully, someone found Jersey this morning and brought her to the humane society.

Then I thought about it. That star was my Bammy, and he was shining brightly for Jersey. Bammy often lectured me about making sure I still spend time with friends (as he knows I would chose hanging out with my dogs over my friends any day), but he also knew how deeply I cared about animals. Thank you God and thank you Bammy for keeping Jersey safe and helping her find her way back home.

Wow. I'm surprised how few responses this thread got. But all that matters to me is the ones who did respond and say well wishes for my family. All I can say is that I know of one or two PTers who, if they had a thread like this, would have had three pages of replies by now. Sad that the internet is like that.

But now I do know who I can really value on PT.

Merry Christmas to all those who replied.

BC Mom...I too have noticed fewer replies in the last 12 hours...I think folks are just tied up with immediate Christmas stuff.

Give it a couple of days for folks to catch up with themselves.

BCMom, please don't take it personally. I don't go to general very often and just now saw this. I am so sorry about your grandpa. He looked like a very sweet man. I'm sure he will be looking down on you this Christmas.... I know it will be hard to but I hope you will have a Merry Christmas

It's hard for some to convey their sympathy in rough times.

I am very sorry about your grandfather. My stepmother passed on in January of this year, so I feel for you.

I lost my grandfather a week before Christmas 4 years ago. I'm sorry you have to go through this too *HUGS* Prayers on the way to you and your family.
