      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Summer: A Love Story

      Apr 20, 2021

      Ms. O'Day and Ms. McLean 's collaborative work reaches in to touch the soul. Thank you for helping others grieve the loss of their beloved family member. A lovely gift to give to anyone who has allowed their life to be enriched by a four legged companion.
