Starby, you will never be forgotten

Asked Aug 16, 2009, 10:33 AM — 225 Answers
As some of you have already heard our Starby passed away this morning.

She fought long and hard, beat a lot of odds, but she lost the fight.

She touched so many of us here. So many times in the middle of the night, when I couldn't sleep, she'd keep me company.

We talked every day on the phone. Her sweet laugh, her voice, he humor and her love, I'll never forget.

So tell us a story about her, something your remember, one of your favorite posts, a poem, whatever you want. Let's keep her memory alive.

Starby, as long as I live I will never forget you. We will meet again, this I promise you. Watch us, laugh with us, enjoy the peace you have finally found.

Thank you all for posting. She'd be tickled pink.

For those of you that didn't know her well, she used to be a florist. She loved her flowers, absolutely loved them, and knew so much about them.

I don't even know the difference between a tea rose and a regular rose. Is there a regular rose? She'd be laughing at that.

So in honor of her love for flowers.

Thanks, wouldn't it be nice if heaven is an individual thing for each of us. Each would be forever in a heaven that was built for us personally and we could spend eternity there with all our loved ones. If that would be true then Jo would be tending her flowers and listening to everything we say here....as I think that this would also be part of her heaven.

I hope it is her heaven because we can't ever give her enough flowers here to express the sorrow.

There's a book I read a while back;

The Lovely Bones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

If you ever get a chance to read it, it's worth a read.

It's sad, but so powerful.

The author believes that we each have a personal heaven. We only have to wish for something to have it.

I believe Jo is in her field of flowers, tending to them and all the dogs whose masters have yet to join them. The longer she's there the more elaborate her heaven will be. The flowers there will rival anything we have on earth.
