Realizing it is time

To move on and not look back

Roxanne

Where do I start? How about how she came into my life.

 In January of 1998 Jim and I took a trip to Long Island to North Shore Animal League. We had been there the year before to get Muffy for Jim.

 Well, this was a trip for me!! I walked in and fell in love with a puppy, but Jim said “no, this sister is for you” so, we looked at “Ginger” and I fell in love. We decided to adopt her and so we sat for 3 hours until we got the word that she was ours!!!

 Well, “Ginger” lasted for about 1/2 hour till the song Roxanne came on and Jim said “hey that name fits better than Ginger” and so Roxanne was named!

We drove the 3 hours home with Roxanne sleeping on my lap and when we got home, Muffy came over and took Roxanne off my lap and gave her a bath!
