A few days ago we lost a dear friend to a very aggressive cancer. Dale and his wife are friends that we met because of the Bassets. What a wonderful couple. Today was Dale's memorial service. I spent a great deal of time thinking about him. He was diagnosed at about the time I finished chemo. It really hit me in the heart.
Perry and I have their two basset hounds for a couple days. Julie thought it best to have them go somewhere during the memorial so she didn't have to worry about them. We were honored to help her out. I think about the "what if it were me" thing. You know how it goes. If it were me I know I would want to make sure my hounds were safe and being loved and cared for. Its the very least we could do for such a special man and special woman.
Thank you for being our friend, Dale! We miss you!
