[Gpdd] Rainbow Bridge: Jodie

[warmbreath]

?
OH! my dear Dee and Joe,         We prepare, we brace ourselves, we hang on 
to crumbs of hope,  we tell ourselves she had a great life and maybe misses 
Peaches, she was a bit sedentary and broad of beam that Sammy loved so much. 
Virtually they loved to sit in front of a tiny flame on the Black Pearl and 
sip tea, she would have a hot soak for Sammy's aching cold feet, and she 
would wrap him in a snuggle cup and he would tell her stories, she hung on 
every word, especially the ones where the secret agents went out in their 
Zodiacs to Caribbean islands and stood watch over nests of turtle eggs, and 
once hatched they would guard the babies on their first and most dangerous 
trip to the sea. This was so dangerous as many predators of baby sea turtle 
would gladly snatch up a piggie instead, but they fought valiantly with 
their pirate swords and never a piggy was lost and many babies were saved. 
Brave Piggies  and Brave times and sweet Jodie to come home to, Sammy loved 
that life.

But it all doesn't change the sadness in hearts now. Your sad messages 
washes over me like a wave too large to escape, and I cant help adding to it 
with my tears.  I am crying so hard I have a towel in my lap. So I'm sure 
it's much harder for you and I am so very sorry. The new year wont be what 
it would have been now that this world is missing our Jodie. I am grateful 
that she went very quickly, the opposite is so awful.  So gentle Jodie  has 
gone off to the Rainbow Bridge as whee all must. Sammy is only 2 so 
hopefully for me Jodie may wait awhile for her one true pig, but to be with 
Peaches again and to meet all your other piggies she has known and others 
like my Manny, the Princess Snowflake, Orinoco who I thought was boar on 
first introduction, and even my long gone Penny Giggles, will fill the gap 
with fun and games and endless meadows of the finest hays and most beautiful 
flowers. Good bye Dear Jodie, whee love you so much and will always remember 
you.
Sammy and Sandy


" It is with much sadness I tell you Jodie left us suddenly for the Bridge. 
It was unexpected because she seemed to be improving.  I could tell it  was 
sudden.  I think her heart just stopped.  She was laying by her food dish. 
Joe and I were shocked and saddened.  We were able to bury her in our 
backyard  with our other Bridge piggies even with snow on the ground.

 At least she didn't linger or suffer.  She is at the Bridge, perhaps at 
Toby's tavern,  hoisting a brew to her piggie friends and waiting for her 
true love Sammy to  join her
 in the future.  Not too soon we hope.  Thank you all for your support 
during her illness.

 Dee and Joe with Jodie and June.   Remembering Tribbles, Taffy, Daisy, 
Oreo, Juliet, Pumpkin, Tacoma, Honey,  Peaches and Jodie."
