<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I want to thank everyone who wrote to me when
Lizzie unexpectedly went to the bridge this week. I know our pain will
subside over time. I know I don't always post when others have gone to the
bridge. I am not good at writing condolences, but please know my heart
goes out to everyone and I silently send prayers even if I don't post. 5
hounds, 8 birds and 3 cats and a full time job to pay their vet bills just
keep me so busy. Conrad is like 3 all by himself. Again, thank you
all so much. Ann</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
