Sounds like a lovely neighbour to have had - I too am very lucky with mine.
Makes this seem even more meaningful

Having had a couple of bad things happen in our family that saying is so very true.
My attitude now is never say "I'll do that next year" - grab the chance to do or say the things you want, you might not have the chance otherwise.0 -
My condolences Jefery - makes it more poignant when it is so close to Christmas. When we had to have our lovely corgi put down, it was at the same time as a friend's red setter. Used to be really difficult when we met in Sainsburys because we would both burst into tears at the sight of each other - don't know what everyone thought of us.0

How awful gill, you must feel dreadfully sad at this difficult time.
It seems awful celebrating christmas when a loved one has just died, be it man or dog, but no matter what, life carries on.
I lost both my parents many years ago just a few days after christmas and its always a sad time for me,
Good memories - they'll stay with you.
Take care
