I'm sad to say that the reason I haven't been on is that my hubby passed away last week and was buried yesterday. He would have loved his funeral, there were about 10 fire engines, hook and ladder, the works, fireman all along the highway in respect and over 300 people at his funeral. He died peacefully at home, as we hoped, with Chloe and Lacey in his lap, keeping him warm.

jwash,
I wanted to express deepest sympathy and condolences to you. May Peace and Joy be with you.

This is to Sue (Snow Yorkies) and the people that were in on a big surprise we recieved in the mail last night... this is to ALL my yorkie friends I've been so lucky to have in my life ....and this is just to everyone in general because I feel you are all so special..... I just don't have the proper words here....I want to include every single one of you that has touched my life but the list is LONG and this letter is to all of you.

I'm going to try type this as it comes to me ... I had a letter all written out but it just didn't convey my feelings -

I've never in my life received such WONDERFUL and truly touching gifts as I have since getting to know so many of you[/B]

So everyone knows...Sue (Snow Yorkies) gathered members and thru her....they put together a Christmas Box that was full of wonderful things - I'm not kidding - you guys went NUTS !!!! I'm feeling very unworthy of this kind of kindness...you all just blew us away last night....Chanel & Cheri were in Toy Bliss running around like crazy girls and.... it was like they were yelling "Whooohoooo Mommy - there really IS a Santa"!

I was so overwhelmed it took me 2 hours to stop looking at them... and then all night I couldn't sleep trying to get the right words to post to you all. I was actually on here at 4:30am to say this today .... and the words just didn't do my thoughts justice.

It's really funny ...we went from pretty much having anything we wanted WHEN we wanted it - nice car etc.......and after losing it all... & him being sick...I feel MORE blessed than when we had it....All because of the wonderful people like YOU that I've gotten to know thru the yorkie sites...

My husband and I just kept looking at each other in amazement - he NEVER cries & I saw tears in HIS eyes....Then he started making fun of me because I don't think I've ever been totally speechless before (Well.....maybe a few times but not for long )

I sat there all night and I STILL Can't believe the nice things people sent and the thought and care behind the package...I scanned the letter and hope you all can see it...

There is toys...treats...clothes...cute blankets...bows...people sent gift certificates and OMG ...too much !! I WILL be contacting you all personally - each one of you... but I swear - a Thank you isn't going to say how I feel right now. Kimberly (txshopper had surprised me with 2 beautiful baskets not a month ago... and then this yesterday.. it's just too much) !!

There are too many people for me to include in this by name but you know who you are and so do I....Yorkie people have the biggest hearts in the world...Thank you so much from my family....I'll remember this for the rest of my life.

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL of you and a Sincere thank you for making this year so special....You guys are the best...I really mean that - just the BEST.

And no one deserves it more than you, Villette. Many thanks to Sue, who put this all together. And also congratulations for keeping it a secret from Villette. This must have been the hardest part of all!!!!

I am so sorry for your loss, jwash, but isn't it nice Chloe and Lacey were there for him in his last hours? He must have been a well respected person to have such a turn-out for his funeral.

Villette,
I am so happy for you!!!!!! That is so exciting! Best wishes!

[y0rkieL0ver]

a few days ago, i told myself not to read anything posted by you, Villette because i would end up in tears, and apparently i suffer from short term memory loss, because im in tears again. you are so sweet and deserving of such a wonderful gift, i am not even surprised that fellow YTrs did this for you. i wish i had known about it. in the little time i've been here, you have already made me feel like i know you! I hope you, your husband and the spy girls have a wonderful holiday.
jwash- i send you send you hugs and prayers, i am sooo sorry for your loss. and like everyone said, we are all here for you. <3<3

jwash,
My thoughts are with you and your family. Hold your pups close, they are there to help.

[rrosenberry]

Let me start by saying NEVER would I have thought that an online forum could be such a great thing, I heard of people on chat lines and forums, but never got in on, until this one,, and let me say how happy, and thankful I am I found all of you~
Villette, I'm so glad we made you happy today, and SURPRISED you! I often wondered how Sue was gonna pull this off,, Cause you don't miss too much around here. But she did, and a great effort and job she did! Thanks Sue for your effort and thoughtfulness. Villette, you are a wonderful person who is willing to help everyone, with anything. You deserve so much more than what we did, I only wish we could do more. Thanks for being there, and being a person,, I call a Friend, without hesitation. Never would I have thought I'd become attached to people I have not met, But I have, and I thank you for that. Merry Christmas.
Love, Rhonda

I wasn't part of this, but Villette I want to wish you a Merry Christmas and I can't think of anyone more deserving of this. You are a positive force and I know you are going through some difficult days, but you always try to put some joy in someone else's life.

[chechinmipo]
