<DIV>Ohhh Jamie.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Well I remember the original phone call from Lodi Shelter.</DIV>
<DIV>A hound tossed from a moving car on the freeway - the car behind who
witnessed it went into a spin and saved the hound - he had been named
Flyaway.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Having family in Lodi, this hound for some reason struck a note in me, and
I was on a mission - a mission to save the poor guy that flew thru a window onto
pavement - thrown out with no thought, beyond "littering".</DIV>
<DIV>And then your email came in - and he had a foster home. The wonder of
the internet, the amazing power of the drool - a glue that holds us all together
despite geography, and loving hearts from truly dedicated basset slaves.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Over the years the posts of Max's ups and downs, the good times, the
training of the salve - the joy in knowing a hound had found his angel - pure
and simple. Was loved, and adored as only a basset slave can do.</DIV>
<DIV>And then this morning. 9 years later, the memorial of Max.</DIV>
<DIV>A loving tribute to the bond that exists between the baggage of his past,
and the glory of his new life.</DIV>
<DIV>Flyaway Max - from the arms of your angel to the great beauty of the
Rainbow Bridge - watch over her well, visit her often in her dreams, and share
with her the glory of you in your finest - young, healthy, free and roaming as
you please - never to be Flyaway again.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Many hugs to you Jamie - may drool adorn your home forever more.</DIV>
<DIV>Thank you for loving Max. Thank you for saving that wonderful life,
and for celebrating it.</DIV>
<DIV>Candles shall be burning at Daphneyland in honor of Max - </DIV>
