		<description>Well, you could have least given a warning that this was a three-tissue story. :-) I remember Reggie, and I remember he loved you first, and life second.  He was the perfect dog, and I am so blessed because I know I have a perfect dog too.  And, like you, I have had several other perfect dogs that are now perfect angels.  We are both so fortunate to have known these unconditional friends, and the greatest anticipation is knowing that another unconditional friend is just waiting to come into our lives!  Thanks Fawn for the great story and the priceless lesson that dogs aren&#039;t clingy, they are on a mission from God to give you everything they have!!!</description>

		<description>Although my first goal at age 8 was to be a Weeki Wachee Mermaid (which I really reached!), when I entered the field of commercial banking, I was groomed to be a branch manager of a large Florida bank. I was trained and sent out into the field as the first female branch manager in the area. Boy, was I important! I worked in the field for over 20 years, taking a break for the birth of my first and only child at age 42. As banking changed from the friendly, community minded business to a sales oriented, goal driven, consuming business, I realized that I was not dong what I wanted to do and regretted the time I had lost with my son. Luckily, my family relocated to the place where I was raised and I was able to reconnect with my son and the life I wanted to live. 

I thank God everyday for where I am in life and the friends I have gained along the way. Fortunately, you, Fawn, are amomg those friends!!!</description>

		<description>I have a feeling that if you were to dive head first into social media you would love it. I&#039;ve really enjoyed the new connections and opportunities that have arisen from facebook and twitter. Just last night the company I worked for was the second most popular tweet for the evening. The best part is that it really is one-to-one marketing. I&#039;m making a personal connection with our customers and it&#039;s extremely fulfilling being able to reach so many people in a genuine way.</description>

		<description>Rupert and I went to the Dog Bakery yesterday to buy Reggie his birthday card, a huge birthday bone (iced with Happy Birthday written in blue) and two teddy bear treats with huge red hearts. I think I should save them for you because I know that there will be another &quot;Happy Birthday&quot; and another dog in need of teddy bears with big red hearts. I can&#039;t even imagine losing my &quot;clingy&quot; little Rupert because he has become everything to me. It hasn&#039;t been him clinging to me as much as me clinging to him for he is the one teaching true love. We are so sorry for your loss and I have to say that I can&#039;t even imagine. My last dog, Spike, was 17 and I could only compare it to the loss of my father. I missed him so much and it was seven years before we got Rupert. I won&#039;t ever do that again. All our love is with you.</description>
