I had very little interaction w/Phred but what I did have was very encouraging and I came to know him through his posts and the testimonials of others. It's difficult to see someone suffer as Phred did towards the end and especially at this time of year b/c we want everyone to be filled w/joy and hope. Now, at least, he's at rest and is enjoying a wonderful reunion w/his critters and all those that he had helped down through the years. Phred, you will be missed around here but we are so glad that you are now at peace and can really and truly exhale.
