10 years Mark! None of us can believe it!
It's been good and bad. Many new littles, but this year I lost a granddaughter.
It was at the end of January. It was Jaye's daughter, Jadin, and I still can't even believe it yet.
Heartbroken. She was 5 days short of her 25th birthday, so young, and beautiful, and apparently had a brain tumor of some kind.
She died 4 hours before she was scheduled for surgery.
Life just goes along and does what it does, I guess.
I miss you.

It's nearly the end of 2022 Mark. Can you believe it? But you don't know, 'cause you are not conscious.
We have a lot of new babies! I am still in Oregon , but someday soon I will live up north where the kids are again. I really miss them, especially since there are so many!
Kitty and Chris moved back to Idaho with their little munchkins, but there are still 4 of them in Wa.
Wish you could see them all!
Happy Christmas, Marky...

I already talked to you in March, but here I am again.
This is the day they found you.
The next year was so hard.
9 years. I don't know where it's gone.
I miss you and trips around Idaho. I often think of you when I see something you would like or not like but especially hilarious things you would love.
I miss you.

Here we are again, Marky. Another year has passed, next year it will be 10 years since you left us.
It's gone so fast!
We all still miss you, especially me.
You wouldn't like what's going on in this world, but better days are coming. You'll be back to see it.
Love, Me again
P.S. You should see all the grandbabies!

The end of another year, Marky. Times are getting tougher and tougher. So many people hurting, folks without homes, it's a mess.
Almost makes me glad you aren't here to see it.
Almost.

We have lost so many friends and family and dang it you were one of them. You would have hated this last year with all the politics and Covid. You would have loved my place. All the babies and dogs come here to run. I am out in the sunshine with my 3 grand babies and Jax. You only met Lorelei. Planting bleeding hearts today for you. Tomatoes next month, also for you. Miss you forever my friend. See ya when it’s time

Hi Marky, remembering you today. Would you really have been 67? I guess so, 'cause I am.
So much water down the canal!
67 isn't much fun. You wouldn't care for it, let me tell ya!
And would you be flabbergasted at the things the years have brought! The last President Agent Orange, fires, pestilence, you wouldn't believe it all.
Glad you missed it, but still sorry you're gone...
You will be back.
I hope I'm here.
Love, me

7 years have come and gone. 7 years!
It hardly seems like it, yet it seems forever too.
You were one of a kind, and I miss so many things about you.
We had some good years, didn't we? And some tough times.
Often wish we'd all stayed in Idaho, but that is water down the canal.
You will be back one day.
Boy will you be surprised.
Love ya.

Another year without you my sweet friend. You have missed all the new babies in the family, trips to Maui, weddings and now Covid. You would have wanted to be up in the woods and away from people anyways. You left in one of your happy places and not by some rotten virus. I miss your smile, funny little tittery teasing giggle. See ya on the other side

You have fought getting old...you said you would never be. I still wish you were here with your huge smile, happy snicker cussing us out for making a cake and reminding you. Maybe for chocolate chip cookies it would have been ok. You've missed so many big things and are missed at every one. There are always comments on how you would have been. We love you and miss you so much. If ever there was a human who got to go over the Rainbow Bridge it was you. Because you were just a good man.

You'd be 62 today. I went by your house the other day, it looks real cute. It is up for sale. It makes me sad.
Rest well, and ditto what Kat said. I miss you. Love, Me

"Here we are, two years. I think of you every day still. Took some daffies up the hill for you last week, it was a lovely day to sit and visit. Someone is working on your house! It made me happy and sad all at once, I wonder what you would think....I love and miss you as I have for two years now...thank you for the memories, I wish there had been more...❤

Your 61st birthday has just come and gone...you would have grumped about it...still doesn't seem real, I drove over by your house the other day, sat there for a few and cried...it seems so forlorn with no Marky vehicles, no pets, no you. I wish I could just go in and stand still, just to see if I can feel you there...I miss you, Doofus

The 25th has come and gone...the day they found you. You are missed as much today as in the first terrible weeks after...I think of you every day...when someone leaves, it seems unthinkable that every moment after takes us away from that moment of loss, it's like floating away on a current...you can't go back, but it seems impossible to go on. That's how it was when you left. Since then I have kept on doing the daily things, big and small, always thinking how it would be if you were still here, wanting to share things with you...and a year has gone by. How? I just want you to know you are loved, and always will be. We keep you alive in our hearts!

I hope you know how much I love you, Marky dear. I know you are walking, strong and tall, in the hills and valleys of Idaho, where you loved to be. I see you at Graveyard Point, and ATVing in Big Valley, and I know you are well and whole and in your happy place.Thank you, dear heart, for being my shade these too few years. Muh.

Titanic

August 7, 2014

There are so many Marky stories! Just now I was thinking of the day he took me all over Green Peter Reservoir in his little boat...we were enjoying the beautiful summer afternoon, bobbing over the water...I was sitting at the bow (is that what it's called?), being the dubious hood ornament, and Mark was quietly but rather quickly guiding the boat toward shore...I turned to look at him, and there was water in the boat...he said "We..aaaahhh...sprung a leak..." I should have been scared I guess, but I busted up laughing instead from the look on his face. However, Mark, as usual, had it covered. He had life jackets and a 12 volt pump that was pumping the water out as fast as it came in. thus, we got back to shore, and dubbed the little boat...the Titanic. :)
