| If I should ever 
                        leave you whom I love To go along the Silent Way, 
                        grieve not,
 Nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and 
                        talk
 Of me as if I were beside you there.
 (I'd 
                        come-- I'd come, could I but find a way!
 But would 
                        not tears and grief be barriers?)
 And when you hear a 
                        song or see a bird
 I loved, please do not let the 
                        thought of me
 Be sad... for I am loving you just 
                        as
 I always have... You were so good to me!
 There 
                        are so many things I wanted still
 To do-- so many 
                        things to say to you...
 Remember that I did not 
                        fear... It was
 Just leaving you that was so hard to 
                        face...
 We cannot see beyond... But this I know:
 I 
                        loved you so-- 'twas heaven here with you!

                        "Dancer"   
                        1999-2008
  Smart and undemanding, Dancer had a 
                        knack for knowing what was being asked of her and would 
                        happily comply.  She always had some favorite 
                        stuffed toy that she'd carry around, sometimes for many 
                        months until it completely fell apart in the wash.  
                        She would contentedly recline in your lap for as many 
                        hours as you were willing to rub her tummy. 
 Dancer truly was an 'old soul' whose disposition 
                        was so sweet that she is the standard against which all 
                        others are measured.  Her passing leaves a deep 
                        emptiness in our hearts as we reflect upon how blessed 
                        we were to have known her.
 We love you sweet 
                        girl.  Please listen to Dancer's song, "Brown Eyed 
                        Girl by Van Morrison"
