Dear Phyllis,
We met you and Rally at the 2009 Champs in TN . . .
We wish we had some "good words" that would ease your pain and heal your heart; but . . . we haven't found them yet . . .
Rally was fighting a fight against a most vicious "enemy" . . . he gave his all, as you did you . . .
You both had a number of GREAT YEARS TOGETHER . . . never long enough; but both of you are so much richer for your time together . . .
We do the very best that we can for our kids . . . all too often, there comes a time when it's out of our hands . . . and the best that we can do is to honor the trust that our kids have placed in us to do right by them . . .
With sincere sympathies and understanding . . .
Hugs & wags,
Al & Barb Ceranko, Dred, Gael & Pellinore (OH)
It's with a heavy heart that Rally lost his valiant fight with prostate adenocarcinoma last night. He accomplished a lot in NADAC agility in spite of his senior handler. He died in my arms as I carried him into the emergency vet.
