Re: Heat exhaustion... a fatal reminder.
ah, John. What a terrible time for you and Pattee and your neighbors. I am so sorry for the loss of Lola, for her family's pain, and the anguish I know must rest in your hearts. What a blessing you are to your community, John, and to all who know you and Pattee.
I know when Lola looked back through that candle light as she crossed The Bridge, she was thinking how grateful she was that you were there to hold her, to give her failing body a small measure of comfort, that she was with someone at that moment who truly cared.
May peace attend you and all who love Lola in the coming days.
Fly free, sweet Lola, fly free.
