" Petey Parakeet " Spring 1990 -------- Sept. 3 1999
Bird
Today at approximately 7 pm Petey Parakeet died.
She was in a comfortable warm place when she passed
on after a short illness. although she was alone when she died
the one person that loved her the most in this world had been
with her shortly before.
She had been severely handicapped from birth but no
one would have ever seen that. She was a very strong and quite a
little spitfire at times. Her home was in a small aviary with 8
cockatiels and Petey never thought of herself any less than a
bigger bird. Her feet were both curled up into little tiny knots
and must have been painful at times but she was one
never to complain...She took her lot in life with stride and
pride of an Eagle. And what a beauty she was.
She was the palest of blue which darkened as the color moved
to the tips of her feathers...
You could tell she fought hard the past two days to cheat death
but she lost her fight when her strength gave out......
She now lives among the very best. She isn't crippled anymore.
May God take good care of my precious little angel bird.....
she really earned her place in heaven .
*****
Petey as you soar in Heaven when you stop to take a
break there on that highest mountain top........
feel in your heart how loved you were.
I will see you soon sweet one.......I love and will miss
you very much......and I hope one sweet day to feel your
strong feet on my shoulder when we are together.......
Be happy and at peace for both of us Petey...
you will be in my heart always.
I love you!
