Thinking of You, My Friend

Dearest Gonzaga,
 
Thinking of you today.  Cannot believe that it's been 3 years since you left for Heaven.  I miss you!  I had a good cry last night, as I remembered all of the great times we had together.  I was comforted by some adorable photos of you, which truly capture your sweet and loving soul. 
 
A few weeks ago, I was on my computer looking at flights online when I heard this most unusual noise outside my window.  When I peeked through the blinds I saw this most precious little yellow bird (perhaps a wild canary?) whose tiny little foot got stuck in the mesh of the window screen.  When I quickly glanced back at my computer monitor, the Southwest Airlines site had a photo of San Jose, California, and the message said "Discover San Jose."  I immediately looked back at this little bird who was still by the window, and said "Gonzi, is that YOU?"  That little bird looked RIGHT at me for at least a good 10 seconds, and in that instant, I KNEW!!!
 
Thank you Gonzaga for ALL of the wonderful memories I have of our friendship.  I will forever keep these special moments close to my heart.  May you continue to SOAR with your beloved feather friends, including ALL of the precious Angels in Heaven until we meet again!
 
Love and Blessings,
