I have been posting this photo a bit lately, it is a picture of my grandparents, from before they were married I believe... They had many names over the years. They were known as Buddy and Jumbo to their friends, but Annie and Pompom are the names I recall using the most. Annie passed away many moons ago, but my Pompom hung around right up until yesterday morning.
It is a sad time, but we all know that he has had an amazing journey. He was a fine story teller with a wonderful sense of humour. We will always remember him with love and joy in our hearts. Now he can be with his Annie again.
So glad that I will be home next week to spend time with my mumma and cuddle her during this sad time.
Im so sorry to read your sad news. My thoughts are with you all. big hugs, dee x
