One of my coworkers ordered it. I will have one here in Terri's honor.</p> <p>I received more sad news from my Dad. Another friend of the family has passed away. He passed on May 22nd which is one week after the family friend who passed on May 15th. I believe both men have been cremated. So I have a life celebration to go to on June 13th and then a funeral on June 20th. One was 73 and the other was 83. I will see people I haven't seen in years. </p> <p>Life seems even more precious now. I go to hug my cats. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17665/page/2#post-391387 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 19:29:27 +0000 Kitten Whisperer 391387@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi, Lynn, CW, MS, NNGM, CM and OW. What a beautiful memorial thread for Terri. *raises a glass of Baileys in a toast* </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17665/page/2#post-391384 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 19:17:55 +0000 Lynn from PA 6/8 391384@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Thank you Cw, that means so much to me and Kay, you just don't know. Kay made the blanket, the pic was all Terri. I thank you for the memory of what you saw and I shall treasure that you let me know. Much hugs and love to you. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17665/page/2#post-391381 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 19:07:23 +0000 Catwoman 391381@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Thanks NNGM! She drank Arnold Palmers every time we went out! I thought it was an alcoholic beverage at first. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17665/page/2#post-391379 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 19:01:20 +0000 NNGM 391379@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Big hugs, CM.</p> <p>This is from a thread for Gem's birthday party last July. I saw it earlier and it gave me a smile. From Terri:</p> <p>The boys have meowma and daddy up early to go to the party. Bog is dressed in kahki shorts with a blue t-shirt with fireworks on it. Clark is dressed in blue jeans shorts and a t-shirt with a copy the Declaration of Independence on it. Clark says that daddy says this applies to kitties too. Andy, the tail-less wonder, is dressed in red shorts and a blue t-shirt with a white ball cap (did he swipe this from daddy? he's not telling).</p> <p>Bog carries a bowl of daddy's famous tuna ice cream. Clark carries a thermos of Arnold Palmers for the furless party goers (for those not from Florida that's 1/2 unsweet iced tea and 1/2 lemonade). Andy carries a bag with a change of clothes for him (he's still a baby and a bit clumsy). </p> <p>Meowma says to come back through the worm hole to change into different clothes before the fireworks so that they don't get bit up by buggies. </p> <p>Now, be good, listen to NNGM and remember to thank you hosts.</p> <p>The boys rush up to Gem and give purrday head bonks. HAPPY PURRDAY, GEM!!!!</p> <p>Clark sees "his" Cricket and give a gentle nuzzle and sandpaper kiss. Hi, he purrs. </p> <p>**********************************************************************<br /> I think I will have an "Arnold Palmer" in Terri's honor. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17665/page/2#post-391378 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 18:58:02 +0000 Moonshadow_NZ 391378@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Evening all, just a brief post as I have to take Mum for an opticians appointment.<br /> As KK said yesterday Terri has Mitzi purring at her feet now, it's good to know that Mitzi will have someone to give her tummy rubs. There may be a bare patch on the lawn at Mum's now but we all know Mitzi will be well looked after by Terri. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17665/page/2#post-391372 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 18:45:49 +0000 cricketsmama 391372@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Evening everyone.
