Blessing of the Animals
Once a year all the Therapet members gather to honor the animals that provide thousands of hours of work in our communities. It is also a time to remember those animals and volunteers we have lost throughout our years of service in East Texas.
The Gate
Just a note to let you know how I'm doing since we had to part. To let you know I'm doing fine and that you still hold my heart. There are beautiful lakes to swim in and I can stay 'til late, but many times I excuse myself to go and check the gate.
Now angels do play fetch and I bring it back, then wait. Yet after several throws I leave to go and check the gate. And I can eat all the cookies I want but after I ate, I saved one to bring to you for you might be at the gate.
So when among all your loved ones that meet you at the gate, take the time to look for me, for it's there that I will wait. And even though there's belly scratches and you know I think that's great, Heaven won't be heaven 'til I see you at the gate. Poem By Judy Gregg
