I had to re-read this many times before this finally sank in. Oh Mary, I am so sorry for this loss. I know how special she was. I had the pleasure of holding Kellie many times while waiting on Mary, etc., and I know how she truly loved her Mom, and how she NEVER let her out of her sight. What a great loss to the breed, she was so beautiful... She will be missed. We will be thinking of you Mary.
