4 years ago today I lost my Leroy - he was an 18½ year old Maine Coon. Few humans have ever been honored with such a companion - clown, investigator, mess-maker, and trouble maker extrodinairre. I can hardly believe you have been gone this long. Your picture hangs above me with the caption - "Miss You Mom". God knows I miss you too sweetheart. Your buddy Richard visited your grave today - he not only remembers you, but his girlfriend lost her Eskie today also. I know you feel their pain Leroy - and if you were here, you would surely try to comfort him. I know you are always with me now- watching over all of us - including your two brothers and a sister that we have adopted over time. You are one of a kind Leroy and we forever love and thank you for all the joy you brought to our lives.
Love, Mom, Dad and Richard

Dottie - thank you so much for your kind words - it means more than you can know. I searched to find this site the day after Leroy died. My husband built a beautiful box to bury him in with a few of his favoite toys. I buried him behind my garden shed since he loved flowers, bees and butterflies. I want my ashes to be sprinkled above his grave. My husband gave me two babies on my birthday, 12/16/2005 - 2 brothers who were the only 2 in their mother's litter - Murphy and Floyd. We also adopted a stray in Ortober 2008 who found her way into the garage and almost died when we had her spayed - Lucky is she and what we named her. These babies give me so much to live for and I love them all - Leroy would have wanted it this way.
I've been told Leroy is french for "The King" - king of this house and our hearts. I honor him by loving his brothers and sister as much as I love him.
As much as I love my babies, there will only be only one Leroy.
Thanks again for caring enough to comment.
Karen
