I was so saddened to here of 'Ping is he's passing, and so tragically. I believe in Magic, I see it in many ways, I saw it in the stories of Ping and Puma and in so many others. Magic that brightened my days, confined to home for the most, and laughing, see it in my own furries and their antics. It is devasting to lose one such as "Ping" far too early, tho I believe his touch of Magic will have passed across to another born at or near his time of passing to brighten someone elses life with a special magical touch... much as my "Ash" who passed in January so suddenly and unexpectantly, a very long Albino Male who had the gentlest kiss and pure white coat, who had Magic with small children, and taught that not all carnivores are nasty predators as some would say... His magic is about I am sure, and as he resides across the Bridge with Latte, Shorty, Chocolate, Siteva, Lakota and others whom have touched my spirit, they pass on Magic to those ferrets here below to share a wonderful gift as Ping and others have done and will do So love to Alexandra and family mouring their loss, and I hope you will feel his magic touch you again soon I will miss his spirit reaching across in stories as he had done. Love is the essence of the universe that keeps us moving on. Bigger than all of us.. Michelle Aotearoa - Land of the long white cloud (New Zeland) [Posted in FML 6080]
