No worries. I held it together until I got home then and now am drowning my keyboard.

I'm so sorry to hear this...Rest in peace, Phred.

Phred,
You always knew what to say, you offered the best advice about life, relationships, etc. I'll always remember you and I'm sad I have never had the chance to meet you, but I feel like I already have. Bless you, and godspeed. I'm sure Benny, Anna, and Rosie have greeted you along with so many of our loved RB pets!

Rest in peace Phred. You were loved by many. My dear baby boy Griffin, I am sure was at the bridge to greet you. You will be deeply missed.

I'm on here in tears again.

At least we can all take comfort in knowing there's someone wonderful to take great care of our pets who have crossed over. I'm sure he's met Reggie and Smokey by now. I found my pics from my two trips to Findlay, it was bittersweet looking at them. There's some RB doggies too which I'm sure Phred is taking care of now. Miss ya Phred, you were one of a kind, wish I had the chance to see you one last time.

Is there any possibility of establishing some sort of memorial to Phred at the Findlay dog park? A bench or something, with a plaque? I'd surely contribute to that.

I think this is a wonderful idea.

I'm sitting here in tears again.

Luckily I'm still at home. I feel like I've lost a member of my own family. He has touched so many peoples lives in such a positive way. The world was a better place with him in it. We have lost not only a wonderful member of PT but a beloved caring great man. I'm just so lucky to have known such a man.

I couldn't have said it better, Tracey! I too, found out about this from FB and came right over. I didn't get to meet John/Phred in person - but he was certainly a pillar of this community. I'll never forget the year of the firemen at the southern CA BBQ!

He always had something positive to say and prayers to give for those in need. Reading through all these posts brought tears to my eyes. He will certainly be missed.
Although I don't have a dog - I'm close enough to actually drive to Findley this year...hmmmm....
