I have family members who are not part of the 'Cat who check in several times a day and find it comforting. We don't view it as a painful reminder. We have enough of those every day and this thread isn't one of them.

Becca, thanks for letting us know this thread has met what I am sure is the goal for many of us, if not all.

The thread has proved a comfort to others who may not have posted too much, as well, who have had their own losses recently and in the past.


I will never forget Ezra: that any one human being on this planet could evoke so much care and so many, varied expressions of that caring is a sign of our connectedness that will always, to me, be linked in my mind as "Ezra." I give thanks for that, and for Ezra.
