Pea Power, for Bob, Mike has passed to The Rainbow Bridge.

Update:  Mike has passed peacefully with his "dad" by his side and friends nearby.  He was well loved, born in 2000, he has had one family from the time he was born till his last breath.  His litter-mate and brother "Max" was waiting, as was both his biological "mom" and his human "mom."  He went very quickly, he was ready.

I shared the postings here with Bob, and he sends his heartfelt thank-yous to everyone.  Any thing further, I will take over tomorrow.

Thank-you for all the thoughts and prayers.  




Asking for some of that Pea Power for our friend and neighbor Bob, and his dog "Mike."  It's time, and Mike will be helped to cross over to The Rainbow Bridge on Wednesday near sunset, at home.

Bob in recent years also lost his wife to cancer, and Mike is who kept him going each day.  In my heart, I feel Bob needs the Power of Peas, he is a good man of simple means and needs.  He was one of the original homeowners in the subdivision, and nearly everyone that they knew from this neighborhood has gone.

DH and I will be there at his request, as well a few other neighbors.  I'm going to make a memorial photo, as friends did for us when Chance passed. 

I'm sure we all have that person in the neighborhood that we see, but seldom get to know well, take a chance.  If it wasn't for our Chance and Mike becoming "best buds" and Maggie, "Mike's sweet-girl" from our daily walks, we might not have really met him or known him.  

My heart is heavy, we love Mike too, and have watched him a few times over the years.  He is a very good dog, friendly and loving, even as age and several chronic illnesses have taken a toll on his body.
