[Gpdd] [Peter Gurney] Reminder for Candle Lighting March 9th

[Audrey Binder]

Me again, here to remind you that you are invited to participate in the annual 
Peter Gurney Memorial Candle Lighting, on Wednesday, March 9th, at 8:00 pm, in 
your particular time zone.

All you need to do is light a candle in honor of Peter Gurney, who passed away 
in July 2006 in England.  He was a world-authority on guinea pigs and still 
remains one of our best sources of information through his books and web sites.  
Our first candle lighting took place when we learned of his death and we have 
held a candle-lighting each year since on March 9th - his birthday, to remember 
him.  This is our seventh Memorial.

The memorial includes our dear GPDD friends, guinea pigs and other pets who are 
no longer with us.  As candles are lit in our respective time zones, the light will move around the 
world.  This is our collective way to remember Mr. Gurney, our GPDD friends, and 
all of the piggies who are with them at the Rainbow Bridge.

After we do this, if you send me a post (either to the GPDD and/or to my email), I 
will compile a list of all the places where a candle was lit and post it on the 
GPDD, as well as on a world map, so everyone can see where candles were lit.

So mark you calendars and light a candle on March 9th at 8:00 pm.  More 
information on Peter Gurney can be found on the GPDD home page:  www.gpdd.org

Audrey, William, and GP Gordon (remembering our Reese)
