[TheForge] cats

[Ron Childers]

My condolences on the passing of Poo; I truly empathize. Jester would
meet me at the gate every afternoon and ask me to go to the garden with
him. Gardening is not fun anymore without my little helper. Ron C

My big giant black thing, Poo, went to his maker a week ago today.  He 
was the last of my original crew of 12 that started in 1980.  He was 18 
but that is some cold comfort.  God damned cancer got him.  He is under 
one of the apple trees.  I sure do miss him.
