In loving memory of Five (February 8, 1998-September 30, 2012) on the anniversary of his birth

Happy birthday, Five.

The strongest of them all, and yet so beautiful.

We miss you so much. You were so much a part of the store and our lives. You were mistreated by those fucks, but you remained beautiful.

We remember you today, as we remember you always.

Happy birthday, Five.

We love you always.

Lovingly remembering Prudence (April 2, 1999-January 13, 2006) today, the anniversary of her death

My dearest Pru,

I fell again today, perhaps to remind me that today is your death anniversary. You gave so much joy to me and my parents, the latter who wanted you so much.

We always loved you, Pru, and we always will. Mommy and Daddy are gone now, and perhaps you are together, in all the funny ways back then.

I love you, Pru. Death doesn't change that.

Lovingly remembering Garpy (Dec. 29,1982-Aug. 10, 1991) today, the anniversary of his death

My dearest Garpy,

You were such a gift (in fact you were) and a blessing to me. How could I have survived those years had you not been there?

I love you, my baby.

Those lonely nights when I would stay up to write, and you would stay up as well, chewing on a bone. Or those mornings we would chase each other around and sometimes knock some items down, like the black swan. Those times I held you in my bed, as you slept on me.

I love you, my Garpolito, "dear darling of my soul," and I miss you. You gave me so much.

Remembering with love my precious Vixen (September 1, 1998-December 20, 2011), today, the anniversary of her death

My baby, my dearest baby,

What a terrible day it was, that day I let you go. I love you so much, and I miss you so much.

You were a blessing to me all those years you were with me.

The things you did, your antics, the love you gave me.

Thank you so much, my baby, my lovely.

If I could just relive those years, over and over till the day I die.

I love you, my dearest baby. You will always be in my heart, my Vixen, my Hun-hun, my Sen-sen, my Vicky.

Lovingly remembering my dearest Almond (December 16, 1994-June 2, 2007) today, the anniversary of her birth

Happy birthday, my baby Almond, my Mondy, my Alimondmond, my Comebaby.

I love you, and I miss you so much, my dearest Comebaby.

We had wonderful years, didn't we? In many ways you saved my life.

You were there. Every day you were with me, you saved my life.

Thank you so much, my Comebaby.

I will love you forever.
