Ruffin's ashes have come home

Ruffin came home the other day. In a way it feels good to have him back in the house where he grew up and spent his entire life. I received his ashes from Faithful Friends Pet Crematory in a fancy carved rosewood box.

I am waiting on the brass plaque to put on the wooden box and it will be held here until the time of my own death and per my instructions, will be placed in my casket, just as Axl's ashes were placed in Jacqueline's casket.

I am overwhelmed by the huge outpouring of messages. Thank you all for making my grief easier to bear.
