On February 26, 2007, we said
goodbye
to our beloved bunny, Black
Peter.
Pete was an extraordinary friend
and teacher
who helped us through the tough
times.
When my sons were living in Ohio,
and when
Duane was going through prolonged
medical
treatment, he kissed away our
tears and helped
us cope. He was an extraordinary
bun, very
sociable and friendly, and he
greeted everyone
who came to our home. He was
unconditional
love in expression and we will
miss him. Up until
the last day he was full of
kisses and happy bunny
crunches (a bunny equivalent
to a cat purring).
He was with us for almost 9 years
and he was
a year old when we got him.
He was the oldest
bunny our vet had ever cared
for. He had bone
tumors that caused his bones
to break. Bunnies
do not normally have bone tumors,
but bunnies
don't normally live so long.
We are grateful for all the time
we have had with
him and feel blessed that he
found his way to us.
We have many, many memories
to give us
comfort and smiles.

Thank you, Petey, for your sweetness
and love,
for your hops and flops and
binkies and smooches.
You will forever hold a wonderful
place in my
heart, and nothing will ever
undo the magic
you have worked in my life.
-- Duane Day
