Dear Bob… you were a stout-minded fellow who didn’t mince words. But you were an old softy at heart who cared deeply about homeless animals, especially your feline friends who you rescued. We knew Buddy was blessed the day you adopted him from S.P.A. And over the years we worked together to help you save as many homeless kitties as we could. Bad Ass Bob, Sadie (aka Black Pearl) and all of the others who lived knowing they were loved, by you. I respected you, sir, more than I do many.
I know your beloved animals have met you at Rainbow Bridge, by now. Give them all a hug from me and know, Bob, that we will take good care of your babies for you. We will even try to help your outside buddy. You were a very special man Mr. Walters with a very special heart. God’s speed, sir.

Mr. Walters, so sorry Jimmy and I didn’t get to visit with you one more time before you left us. You were a good neighbor and we always enjoyed your company and your little kitty cats. We hope you are at peace now with no pain and suffering. We loved you.
