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.
I'm sure this is her heaven.

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.

I never claimed to be a poet.
For Starby.
I have no words, only tears, but those are just for me.
I have to smile, for you're at peace, and that's how it should be.
You fought so hard, against all odds, our ducky, friend, our love.
Now you're at rest, your soul has flown to paradise above.
From Alty.

Lovely Bones gave me great peace when my husband died - it's a good read, no matter what your beliefs are.
Alty, wish I could be there with you. I really do.

I have to go for now.
I'm trying to figure out a way to get a card, have everyone sign it, or write something in it, and then send it to her family.
Any ideas?
The only thing I can think of is for everyone to write something here and I'll write it on the card.
So, if you want to write something for her family, post it here and I'll make sure they get it.
No space restriction, I'll print out pages and pages if I have to. :)
Love to all.

I have an idea hon.
If we all use the paint program on our computers.
Sign on there and a note
Then you can paste it all together and print it out :)

I wasn't lucky enough to have known her, but being on the outside looking in, I see that she touched so many hearts and lives with love. I can only dream of having that quality. May GOD bless her soul, and may GOD bless you all. This particular angel finally got her wings.
I know she suffered so much. GOD has seen that she is at peace. Don't feel sorry for her, envy her. She is happy now, looking down at you all with love.
I'm sure she knew how much you all cared for, and loved her. I can see it from Georgia.

Also, let her family know that while I never knew her personally I loved her and I am praying for them.
