Monday, December 16, 2024 - This will be my last mmressage...
After a pretty good year together we almost made it though without a hitch and sadly (suddenly) Zac took ill and passed away on Monday December 16th at 9am at the age of 12 years 10 months old. I am so heart broken and to give this news to all of Zac fans he so dearly loved.. Zac gave me the most wonderful (almost) 13 years of my life, I loved him so much, he was my only friend I had. I cannot tell you the love I had for him and he to me and what he gave me back. I just want you all to know the suffering one goes though when God' little angel's are called back to heaven.and why are they here, just to show you what you the connection of love you yearn for and what you will see at the end of your journey through life. Zac is on the other side now with Jake and when my day comes to head over that Rainbow I know he will be waiting. You see both Zac and I made a promise, whoever gets to heaven first will wait at the entrance. I am not getting any younger and I know when my time will come I will see him and he will help me over to his side where he awaks.
My friends, I can not tell you how sad I am and the grief I am going though on how so special he was to me and the connection we made and the journey we both took while he was here. We did so much together traveling all over the world on different events I did.and the long summer car trips we have gone on of the northeast states. Yes my heart is broken and it is somthging you will never prepare yourself for. You just don't want to think of the end that will come. It never stop for us it was one good thing after the next . That 13years came up so fast and ended our Journey we loved so much together, our 3/4 hour walks in Central Park alomost every day.
If you have a little buddy just to give you fair warning, LOVE your friend as much as you can...love him, talk to him, tell him stories re-insure him with love and kisses as much as you can.
God bless you and your family and Thanks for stopping by.
Peace be with you all on YOUR jouney though life, time is so very short, please make the best of it...
Enjoy the photos...
