Dear Molly,
On March 11, 2009 you crossed over to Heaven. My heart is broken. I can still remember the day I came to pick you up as a puppy. You were so unhappy leaving your Mom and litter mates. Poor baby - you cried the whole way home. Little did I know you would be the most beautiful, happy and well-behaved dog. You brought such joy to my life, especially through some very sad and lonely times. I've been thinking of all the wonderful things that made you our Molly.
You were pure happiness in a springer's body. You LOVED your ball. You would chase it or hold it for hours. You could find a tennis ball buried deep in the closet, in a sealed tin can. You'd sit at the closet door and just waiting, looking at the door until someone finally open it and pulled out your treasure! :-) Then you'd grab it and trot happily away. You were so smart...I could hide that ball ANYWHERE and you would find it!
It was pure joy to watch you move. You looked like a champion thoroughbred - beautiful gait, gorgeous coat, majestic profile and always, always happy.
One of the most beautiful and loving things in our lives was to come home, pull in the drive way and see your little head pop-up in the front window. Once you saw us you'd jump up with such glee, I imagined you thinking "They're home!! They're home!!
You were very brave during your illness, even the vets couldn't believe you were so strong. You truly inspired us. You bore your illness with grace and strength. In the end, you even let us know it was time, sparing us an agonizing decision. The day we brought you to the vet was the saddest day of my life.
It was so hard to say good-bye because I loved you so very much. The alternative though was to keep you longer and that would have been selfish. You deserved better than that. Your joy subdued...you were waiting for your release from your tired, old body. We couldn't keep you any longer. It was time to return you to God.
God will surely be thrilled to have his beautiful girl back...but those of us on earth will mourn....that such a beauty has departed. I can't wait until the day I see you again I'll be looking for you on the day I die. I will never, ever forget you my sweet, sweet girl, my lifetime dog.
Run hard and play!
Love,
Mom

Yesterday, our precious Molly went to Heaven. She was the most beautiful and majestic dog and a kind, gentle spirit. We are heartbroken and there are no words to express our grief. Thank you to all who sent well wishes and private emails and words of support during her illness. Our home is so empty without her and our hearts broken.
My sweet Molly, may you rest in peace and fly with the angels. May God hold you in the Palm of His Hand until we meet again.

Good morning STAFU,
I woke up this morning and realized how very blessed I am. We were overwhelmed with the well wishes, candles and Rosettes wishing me well. Even Toby got a few (that was very nice :-) ). STAFU is such a wonderful place and I'm so happy to belong. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Love - Molly
