Birthday Greetings to a Dear Departed
« on: October 14, 2008, 04:26:36 PM »
I had reservations about doing this, but since coming to CAS City I have become very comfortable with many of you.  Lil is always at my side, but there is something about writing this and sending out into the airwaves that helps.

     Annabelle would have been 11 today.  She was my third daughter and came to me as a belated birthday preasant the week after I turned 26.  Not a day goes by that I don't think of her.  I don't know God's plan, but she must have been too special for this world.  Imprtant Angel business maybe.

     I just wanted to take a minute to say

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANNABELLE
Thank you all for indulging me.

And God blessed the littlest angels
As they departed their loved ones.
Yet every day we feel their hearts
As they warm us like the sun.

God bless, God speed and good ponies for you Annabelle.
Just because you CAN ride the hide off a horse, doesn't mean you should.

Thank you all.
     The bit of poetry was great, as well as everyone's sentiments.  Got through the day just fine. 
     I'm sure she saw everything you guys wrote.  It means a lot Pards.

Happy B'Day, Annabelle!

A day late.....
Honorary Life Member of the Pungo Posse. Badge #1. An honor bestowed by the posse. Couldn’t be more proud or humbled.

All I did was name it ‘n get it started. The posse made it great. A debt I can never repay. Thank you, mi amigos.
