Sad News

I received this email from Ian this afternoon:

Evening Sandee. My name is Ian and I’m best friends with Steve from bethere2day. I’ve tried posting a message on his blog, but for some reason it won’t let me. I hate to be the bearer of sad news but Steve sadly passed away last week. I know you and he spoke via your blogs each day, but would appreciate it if you could let the regulars who knew Steve know of this sad news.
Many Thanks

This is heartbreaking.  Steve has been a wonderful blogging buddy for years and years.  I loved him, his humor and his kindness.  Rest in Peace Steve, you’ll be missed.

No Tricks, Just Treats

LLB in Our Backyard is having their annual No Tricks, Just Treats for Shelters Blog Hop. This is a fund raiser to help various shelters. This event will span October 30 and 31st. I’m helping by spreading the word about this fund raiser. The LLB Gang will be donating $1 per hop entry and 50¢ for each comment. What am I going to do besides this post? I’m going to match their donations. So go HERE on Wednesday the 30th and Thursday the 31st and link up to the hop and comment. Let’s do it for all the babies that need our help.

Last Thursday Brian (and his peeps) from Brian’s Home posted about helping feral cats. Then,  Monday (October 28th), we’ll take a peek into how Marg over at Marg’s Animals got started taking care of her menagerie. On Tuesday, October 29th, we’ll wrap up our trio of “Helping Paws” by looking at Legacy Boxer Rescue, where The Legacy Chronicles’ Matilda and her angel siblings Casey, Jessie and Cinderella were rescued and united with their furr-ever Mama!

I’m not including the comments left here only the comments left at LLB in Our Backyard and their blog hop links. Please help by linking up and commenting. Thank you!
