A Du Angel I want to give recognition to
This year has not been a good year for me some of you know why. Last month I had to put my pet to sleep (Princess) which just about sent me over the edge.

Well along comes a DU member that I have have had no contact with except for postings here on DU. He went above and beyond the call of duty for what he did for me and, his act of kindness came at a time that I needed it most.

If you see this member through your wanderings here, know that he has a heart of gold.

Heres to you O8) OwnedByFerrets O8)

3. I am glad that you found/find comfort here. DU to me is also like
a haven from the world. There are so many here that are angels, but here are three, that I hold a special place for, that have already gotten their wings

Scott Lowery - Khephra
Jeff Matson - nostamj

5. What a gracious thing to do
I'm so glad, and agree that OwnedByFerrets is an angel for doing that. There are so many truly wonderful people here. I sympathize about having to put your Princess to sleep, we love our pet family members so much, and losing one can be one of the most painful losses we can endure. I truly hope that things get better for you. I hope that your heart of gold benefactor is richly reward for the kindness they showed you. Blessings to you both.:toast:

6. i had to put my 15 year old dog to sleep in may
it was one of the worst things i've had to do and i know your pain. my little guy was sick, but what killed him was a brown recluse spider. the condolences of my friends and family helped me get through--it's so nice when strangers reach out.
i hope you get through your tough times. an abandoned puppy helped my husband and i get through. good luck and bless your pet.

7. several DUers have done exceptionally nice things for me
at times when I was figuratively, if not literally, placing the chair under the rafter and measuring the rope.

here's back at you and thanks to DUers.

8. I give props to Binka
She made a very generous offer a while back, responding to a blathering post I had made. Very kind of her. Props to OwnedByFerrets too.

DUers are a pretty wonderful bunch. Nary a one has threatened to anthrax me, and for that I'm also grateful! :)
