And then there were 3

Dear Friends,
Today, we had to help MrSippi over the Rainbow Bridge and we know he was greeted by his best Friend, Carolina. He got very ill last night and Mom knew something was terribly wrong with the little boy. The vets said he had a terrible infection and he was in awful pain. It's very sad at our house today. Mom and Dad found MrSippi on the 4th of July, 2000, in a ditch on the side of the road overlooking the muddy Mississippi river near Guttenberg, Iowa. He either was thrown or fell out of a car and his little face was all messed up and the plan was take him back to Des Moines and to the local animal rescue league but on the way home, we fell in love with the little kitty who couldn't even eat because his face was smashed in from the accident. We miss you terribly my little boy!
Love, Mom, Thor, Marco Polo and Mama

Huffle broke the sad news about Mr Sippi's passing. We are very sad he was called across the bridge so soon.
Mum has a candle she lights when one of us passes. On the candle glass it says:
"...Grieve not, nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk of me as if I were beside you...
I loved you so...'twas Heaven here with you". Mum will light the candle for Mr Sippi.
