In Memorium

Dazzle Cohen
2004-2009


We've had a death in our animal family. Dazzle, Peter's guinea pig, passed away peacefully in his sleep last night. He had not been eating as much the past few days, but hadn't seemed in any distress, so we're assuming he just reached the end of his time.

Peter was very sad, but we had a little ceremony, and buried Dazzle under some cedar trees in the backyard. We marked the grave with rocks, and Peter left a carrot there. He also made a memorial picture of Dazzle on the computer, and hung it on his bedroom door. Both seemed to help.

We'll miss Dazzle; he was a good piggie.

so sorry to hear about Dazzle. Dick and I always enjoyed seeing him during our visits to your house. Please send Peter our deepest condolences.
