Comment from Aunt Mame
This story touched me deeply. You have told it with detail and the language expressing real grief. Yes funerals are often for the grieving aren't they. The pictures you drew with words were graphic and colorful. The art-work fitted too. Can a horse be called a 'man?' - I guess so in this context. Well done!

Comment from Lois Delaney
This is a sad story about George. Not long ago, our dog, Hunter passed away in our back entrance of old age. It was so sad. So I can relate to this story very well. Animals are closer to humans than we think. They have feelings, and have unconditional love. They too are forgiving. Well done! Lois

I'm sorry to read about your losing Hunter. It is heart-breaking to lose our animal companions! Thank you so much for your beautiful review! Warmest regards, Bev
Comment from BarnCat
Great write, Bev. George reminds me of my Henryand their stories are very similar. I lost Henry to the same disease manifestation. I have written about him in my portfolio. There is a matter of fact-ness to your story that appeals. You were an observer not a character and the voice of your story reflects that. You gave George an aura of nobility -- one that was, no doubt, observed and felt. Your narrative moves smoothly from first through last lines. Well done. D

Hi, D. Thanks for this splendid review. The ominiscent viewpoint can be trickly. I'm glad that you thought it worked well in this piece. Your words and support are very much appreciated. Kind regards, Bev

Wow. What a sad story. However, it was beautifully written.
I too, have a love for horses. In fact, if you ever read my first book, The Question, my favorite horse - Half Pint, is mentioned.
Thanks for sharing this. JW

Oh you have made me cry. Horses get to me with their faithfulness. I have had my dogs do the same thing Patches did. They know so much more than we realize. Very moving story,and very well written.

Animals are far more sensitive all-around then we give them credit for aren't they, DD? I'm really honored you stopped by to read George's story. I'm also deeply touched by your extremely generous rating. It's especially lovely to be recognized by such a sensitive and gifted artist as yourself. Blessings, Bev

This is a truly touching story, Writingfundimension. Many of us have known the true affection and connection with an animal so special it can't be fully explained. You tell the story well and with wonderful tenderness.

Comment from kleck140
The artwork is very fitting with your story. It brought back memories when I had a pure-bred quarter horse for my seven children. All of cried when we had to give him away as the village I live in did not allow a horse on one acre of land. Thanks for sharing a lovely story.
