GOOD BYE TO A SWEET GAL

ZIGGY
Ziggy departed this world Saturday, surrounded
by those of us who loved her.
Apparently her kidneys began to fail her and 
that is what prompted the decline.
As a friend commented earlier,
black cats are very special. Ziggy was that indeed.
Shy around new people, she loved to get under or behind
things. She was extraordinarily affectionate and
just seemed to define mellow.
She loved to roll on her back and to have
her stomach rubbed.

After more than 15 years, a move across 
country with us, she was a family member.
Her final rest is a spot where she loved to 
lay in the sun and watch deer, turkeys and gophers but
mostly just to be mellow and watch the world go round.
Ziggy-one sweet gal.
See you down the trail.
