Sorry to hear of your loss. I know from experience how hard it is. There are always angels among us, and I'm glad Leopold is there for you. I'm still working on the quilts from my husband's shirts. Life keeps getting in the way.

That is beautiful and sorry for your loss! Leopold must be my cats brother!

Sadly Larry died less than two years ago. We were married for 23 years.

In case you're wondering, that's Leopold on the bed. An angel dropped him off at our doorstep about three months before Larry died. He has helped me though so much sadness and has given me back happiness as well.
Hope you all like.
