Goodbye, Icon, my friend

I was saddened to learn that my friend, Icon Baxter Bentley, unexpectedly went to the Rainbow Bridge yesterday. He was a very wonderful cat and I am going to miss him a lot. You may remember that he was my sister Pixie's special friend. As a tribute to Icon, I would like to share the Valentine video that Pixie made for Icon in 2007. I hope they are holding paws together at the Bridge.

37 Notes for Daisy:

Chrissie said...

I'll bet they're holding paws for sure, Miss Daisy. Special friends like Pixie and Icon remain special friends forever, in my opinion. I also think that they're playing together and eating lots of good things, and finding warm sunspots to lie down in together, where they purr and purr and purr.

I am sorry for your heart, Miss Daisy.

Your friend,

Angus

I'm sorry to hear that Icon crossed the Bridge but I'm sure Pixie greeted him upon his arrival and gave him some bananers.

It's so sad that Icon had to leave for The Bridge, but he will be reunited with sweet Pixie and they will be having a wonderful time playing together.

That was lovely to see Pixie's Valentine video to Icon, it made our Mum's eyes leak.

I think we should keep the same view, and then in our understanding of this point, and then deeper thinking!
