Dear St. Francis,
Last night, a dear Sheltie flew into your arms. Wasn't Holly beautiful as she ran across the green pastures of Rainbow Bridge? He fur floated in the scented breeze, and her legs flashed in the sunlight. At last she stopped to lap at the crystal waters of a gently running stream -- so cool and refreshing. As she looked up at you, your smile told her that in what would seem like the twinkling of an eye, she would see her family coming to walk with her across Rainbow Bridge to live forever with the Good Shepherd. Please comfort her family, for they miss her so.
In His name we ask,
Amen
