You loved him too well!!!!I didn't know Mingus but from all the outpouring of affection, it's obvious that he was very much loved and it's obvious that you too are very much loved. I just don't understand why dogs don't live longer (or forever), it's seems perverse. I don't know what the lesson is ....If you figure it out, I'd like to know...<BR/>Many, many, many heartfelt condolences<BR/><BR/>Your old friend Gerry from Jeanne Mance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-536624323736751810.post-85968635669087496182008-11-25T14:23:00.000-08:002008-11-25T14:23:00.000-08:00Dear Christine,<BR/>My heart is with you.

He was a wonderful dog, a very fine fellow and<BR/>such a good companion for you. You must miss him very, very much. We know how hard it is to lose a<BR/>beloved pet.

I’m forwarding this email to your person Christine so she knows you will be in good hands.<BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/><BR/>Fluffy Pettit<BR/><BR/>Dearest Christine:<BR/><BR/>so sorry.<BR/><BR/>kisses<BR/><BR/>hugs<BR/><BR/>love<BR/><BR/>Philip<BR/><BR/><BR/>Oh, Christine, I just got back from London to find your message about Mingie. Saw your beautiful poem on the website. My salty tears are watering the keyboard. So sad your best friend is not with you in body - he&#39;ll always, always be with you, though.<BR/> <BR/>Big hugs to you. Glad you are swimming and getting your hair done. It makes a difference - not huge, but it helps.<BR/> <BR/>Will see you soon in December. <BR/> <BR/>Lots of love<BR/>Susan<BR/><BR/>Devon Moore <BR/>Good morning, love. Chris told me last night about Mingus.... I am so sorry, ...<BR/> <BR/><BR/>Hi Christine,<BR/> <BR/>I received your sad note about dear Mingus. It sounds as though he went as pleasantly as possible, though I&#39;m sure that is small consolation to you. I also note from your blog that you have some heart felt support which must be somewhat helpful. Life, and death, are strange. As we all know, thousands of novels, poems, and religions have tried to cope with the significance of our existence and demise, and I don&#39;t think a satisfactory explanation has yet to appear. Certainly not for me.
