* Prayers for Packer
(February 22, 2005) Help. Today's the day I'm sending my four legged best friend off to scout the Trail Ahead. Favorite photos, memories, kind thoughts, and prayers would be deeply appreciated. I'm grateful for the chance I had to share him with you. Mary mbreckenridge@sbcglobal.net
