This is Sherpa, and yesterday we had to put him down. I’d known him for 11 years and no matter what I was writing at this computer, he showed up to insist that I provide some space on my lap for him.
He was a good kitty and he will be missed by everyone who met him. He was just like that, you know?
I miss my friend and I hope he knows I love him.
We’ll get back to the beer stuff on Wednesday.
A pint for Dionysus 
May happy memories help make your loss a little softer
Thank you.
