Dear Andrea: Think of you often. As someone who lost a partner much too soon, I know how life is never quite the same. I hope that you have been able to find some peace.
I am attaching an older photography of Simone and Luna. (Maybe you already have it.) Simone remains a wonderful dog. She is almost 5 1/2. (Can you believe it?) She has many friends, both animal and human, here on campus and gives me much joy. I have also been thinking that it may be nice for her to have a little sister soon. Will be in touch if that thought continues to be with me.
