Remembering Buckie --eight long months

 It's been eight months since the Buckster went to the Rainbow Bridge, where we know he is romping and having the BEST time!  BUT we miss his little paw-falls clicking on the tile and miss this little furbaby so much. It's the Longest we've been without a Beagle, now in 65 years.

Merry Merry Christmas

 

                                                            

                                             Because of Jesus

                     We have PEACE that passes understanding 

                     We have JOY that cannot be taken away

                     We have LOVE that's everlasting

                     We have nothing to fear 

                     and everything to HOPE for

                     today, tomorrow, and always.

Remembering Buckie Beagle Boy

 

These beautiful  Roses came from CHEWY---

They were the supplier of  Buck's dog food, treats, and toys for many years.  

They wrote:  I'm so incredibly sorry to hear that Buck crossed the rainbow bridge. To have something like this happen is truly saddening and we can’t apologize enough for what you must be going through. Here at Chewy we're all pet lovers and can only imagine how hard this time might be for you. We know animals aren't just pets, they're family.
On behalf of all of us at Chewy, we send our deepest condolences your way. The passing of a friend is hard, even if that friend comes with four paws, a silky soft fur, and the cutest bark ever. If you haven't lived with a dog, you wouldn't be able to understand the love between a dog and their owner. At Chewy, we do. There are no words to ease the sorrow from the loss of your special friend, but let time heal the pain and love heal the heart. Friends enter and leave our lives, but their impressions on our hearts stay with us forever. We hope that you keep all the wonderful memories in your heart, knowing that you provided a loving home to your little one.

Beautiful Christmas Flowers--thank you Jimmy and Kathy

 

Thank you Kathy and Jimmy for the  Gorgeous arrangement for our Christmas Table.  What wonderful work they do at our local florist.  They truly brighten our day AND our  table!

 

Happy Birthday in Heaven, George.   64 years ago I was taking a final exam in German at the U of A at 8:00 that morning, before we headed out to the Tucson Medical Center where you were born at 5:11 pm. We came home the next day to 1843 West Linden St in Tucson, where your Daddy had set up the most gorgeous Christmas tree we have ever had.  What a fabulous day this was---and a fabulous day today, too as we remember our firstborn and all the memories we shared..

                                                             George William Steelman---
                                                       December 14, 1960 to Feb 24, 1988

-GIGANTIC Shrimp.  Last time he got this dish,

there were six shrimp and each was fully 1/2 the size of these 

monsters! Never saw such ginormous shrimp!

                                                       Our Daughter in Law--Patsy
Surprised Roger by walking through the door on Friday Nov 15--his birthday. She stayed through the 18th just to help---many many little miracles for so many "need to get done" projects. 

                                                       

Wedding wishes for Mr. and Mrs. Jim Robinson

 Jim and Kathy were married on October 13th in a private ceremony at Outdoor Resorts in Cathedral City. An  "After Party" was the same afternoon for family and close friends.  Kathy and Jimmy met almost eight years ago and have built the most wonderful love as they expand their hopes and dreams to include each other.  And now they have officially TIED THE KNOT

This is a copy of the Apache Wedding Blessing which I have given to each bride and groom that I have honored through the years..  Kathy and Jim's is framed in an acrylic and chrome frame. The "God's Eye" symbol came from Boho 

God Bless you darlings on your special day, and may you have the most wonderful dreams and dreams of dreams of perfect love as you walk together now into your future as one.

Happy Daughter's Day

 

Love ya to the moon and back, my sunshine girl.

Happy Daughter's Day, Kathy  September 26, 2024
