         from Lynn in France Ger So
        sorry to hear this news.  One of ours is 13 this year and makes one
        wonder how much longer they will be with you.  I know we shall meet
        them on the other side but there is still a huge hole.  Sending
        love  Lynn xxx

         from Akary Busto Los Angeles I am very sorry to hear the news
        about Benji.  Pets become such an integral part of our lives. 
        We have Lola our English mastiff and today we will be meeting a new dog,
        Bailey, to see if he can join our pack. I wish they would live longer. 
        I'm sure we will be at a huge loss as well.  Hang in there.  I
        know he was your loyal companion and friend.  But glad he has been
        there to keep you company for so long and bring back your smiles when
        you needed them. 
         
         
         
         from erika.rombach Black Forest Hallo
        Geraldine,das ist wirklich eine traurige Nachricht von Benji! Wie alt
        war Benji geworden? Es ist natürlich immer sehr traurig,wenn so ein
        liebes Haustier sterben tut,doch hast Du viele schöne Jahre mit ihm
        gehabt. Du hast so schöne Bilder von Benji und er wird immer einen
        Platz in Deinem Herzen haben.Es tut mir auch sehr leid,dass Du so
        traurig bist.
        Denke
        daran,dass er immer in Deiner Nähe ist.
        
         Liebe
        Grüße, Max und Erika
        - Danke
        für die schöne Bilder mit Musik!

         Oh, dear, that is awful. Benji at
        least was at home when he passed but even so, it is a disaster. I should
        have read this one first.

         Oh
        Geraldine I AM SO SORRY. I really love Benji and remember him so well.
        Still I see him protecting me from JS. when we stayed at your house in
        2003.
        To be very honest, I have felt it 2 weeks ago as then I told Marcella
        that I suddenly felt that Benji might not be here so long no more. I
        feel for you and wish Benji a wonderful trip Home to the animal
        Lightgarden . During my NDE in December 1999 They (Lightguides) have
        showed me the animal garden. It looked so great and SO VERY PEACEFUL .
        I remember to have truly seen a small cat lying next to the lion. and a
        lamb and deer eating next to a tiger. Unbelievable cool!! The animal
        heaven is a precious realm of peace, love and friendship. So you know
        your dearest Benji is safe and happy.
        Sending you a warmest sisterly hug in crystal Light embracement.
        I will light a candle for you and for Benji.All my Love, :-* >:D< Desirée

         Very sad news indeed. Although he
        will be missed by all his friends, at least it is a relief that he
        is not suffering. It's a nice idea for him to be in the garden. I
        still think about Sam and Sophie every time I walk past their own
        little plots. Sometimes life's very hard, isn't it.Love Janet

         Oh Ger I am so very sorry Benji
        passed on today!!   I know he was suffering though and it had
        to be.   It is really nice the vets came to the house-they
        don’t do that here.   And burying him in the garden is
        perfect and you will think of him always.  He really was a
        beautiful dog!!   The prayer flags would be a wonderful idea
        for him as well!   Please know you are in my thoughts today as
        well as Benji.  He will be missed. Love, Liz

         Hi
        Geraldine
        
         Sorry
        to hear of Benjamin's death.   We remember the sadness we felt
        when a friendly intelligent cat called Tammi who had been with us many
        years died, she was buried also in our garden.
        
         All
        well here. God bless   Jean and Ed

         Geraldine,
        I am so sorry about Benji. He was a lovely little dog who you will miss
        very much. Having lost one of my pets a few months ago I know how you
        will be feeling.

          So
        sorry to hear about your little dog you must miss him very much.       from brenda piesczak Michigan US
         Oh!
        Geraldine!  that is SOOOOO SAD!!!!!  I feel so bad for
        you...he was such a good friend.  I know there have been times when
        he was a bit punky, but I never realized he was this bad.  I am
        praying for you right now....I have been there and know that it hurts
        as much as losing a child when you lose a close pet.  Please know I
        share in your loss, as I enjoyed his pictures and your stories about
        him being at your side through so many of your personal trials. 
        I feel confident you will see him again some day, as dogs have a heaven,
        too.  I wish I was there to give you a hug right now.....Love and blessings at this sad time, Brenda

         Oh, dear, that really is so sad. 
        I know how much you loved Benji.  I suppose we all know the
        inevitability of pets dying but it still doesn't make it any easier, I'm
        sure.  Benji had a wonderful life with you and you'll always have
        the lovely memories/photographs of him and it was good that he
        died at home with you there - but, still, I'm sure that at the
        moment that is no consolation to you.  I really do feel for you in
        your grief and you have my deepest sympathy. 
         Love, Brenda     from Zaza Fontana, Nelson Oh lovie you have my most heart
        felt Sympathy I know how it feels , they leave such a void, I totally
        understand, and no other will replace him, but our hearts do heal in
        time, and when you are ready I am sure you will find another willing
        soul to fill another gap in your life, they don't ask for much never
        complain and are always happy to see you, no matter what, I am sure your
        walks and bike rides will now be filled of happy memories of Bengi's
        loving face .. 
         
         
         
         
         from Liz Wolff, Denver You know I love animals almost more
        than people so I feel so for you today.  I know it was what had to
        be for Benji but it is so hard for you.  I worry about you alone
        there now without him to talk to.  I know you miss him terribly. 
        It was his time to leave and I am sure seeing him hurting like he was,
        was not nice to see.  You had him a long time and he was well loved
        and cared for and that is all he wanted.  He was your protector and
        companion and that is what he wanted for you. Larry had wanted to be a
        vet at one point and so he studied much about animals and he thinks 13
        years for Benji to live is actually a long time for that type of dog. 
        So that is a testament to you too that you took such good care of him. I’m crying too and have been
        often today.  He was a truly beautiful and wonderful dog. 
        Much more than a dog really.  A best friend and companion. 
        And he will always watch over you and be there in heaven waiting for you
        next to Wolf when you get there
        
         
         
         
         
         
         Jeanne LeMieux, Austin Texas Oh, Geraldine, I am so sorry to
        hear about Benji. I know you loved him alot and he loved you. It's
        always so sad to love a companion like that. Thank you for telling me.Hugs, Jeanne
 
         
         
         
         
         Sue Bokowski, Rawtenstall Oh,
        I'm so sorry to hear about Benji. He was a gorgeous, gentle creature and
        loved you so much. He'll still be close to you in the garden. As
        long as we remember him he remains very much with us.
