It is with deepest sadness that Hope writes this message. A special boy has lost a special friend and although Hope knows there is deep sorrow, Hope wants us all to rejoice in how fortunate we have been to be able witness and share this special bond of friendship as it has grown over the years. Please join Hope in sending warm, healing thoughts and prayers to Sean Stout and his family. Rocky was angel disguised as a ferret and he has been called home. He will be missed. Hope I am the Guardian of Hope. If you know a ferret in need and prayers or good wishes will help ease the pain, please let us know. Send us a note with the information and we will send our very best prayers or good thoughts in Hopes that the warm power of love will surround and comfort the precious little one - and the hoomans who loves them.
