Well Humblebee,
You just made me smile...and brought some tears to my eyes also. Good tears though....
I miss my Dad and my Dinkee the chipmunk. And it felt really nice that you recall the story and that it made you smile. It kind of immortalizes deceased loved ones for me to tell the stories....especially knowing a story was heard and that it touched someone else. That's sweet that you brought this up. Thank you.
