Well we have been in Jeddah over 1 year now... or Tim has. I am coming up on the anniversary of my arrival, March 15th. It has been an experience... I am glad we came... and will be glad to go home.
Today our daughter called us at 5AM. It was about time for us to wake up and go to work..... I was actually up already, before the alarm. So it was our Sunday morning, March 3, 2012, and it was still Saturday night for Josh and Patty. They were finishing up a day of work and studies.... they had let Hoover out and the unthinkable happened. Hoover died ..... they found him on the side of the road.... his body still warm.
Hoover was a blessing to our family. Patty got him when she was just 13 and we had just moved to the farm in Minnesota. He was her buddy and she was his. You could not have found a more gentle and loving spirit.... We loved him and he will be missed. Thankfully, we are blessed with many wonderful memories of him. Thank you Hoover.... enjoy chasing kitties in heaven.
Here is a link to a slideshow I created "In Memory of Hoover"..... http://vimeo.com/61087160
