Each Life That Touches Ours for Good

We lost a dear friend last night. It was terribly unexpected and we don't know how or if he could ever be replaced.


I don't know what killed him, but we have lost our dear Betta fish, Blue. We loved him and he loved us. But he died. We are heartbroken. Keara was almost to tears over him..."but I WANT him!" He was such a great fish with SO much personality. Don't laugh, he really was.

Perhaps it was heartbreak, perhaps starvation (we WERE feeding him), perhaps anything else, but we are so sad to lose him.

Here's to you, Blue.

sad day! no one feels your loss like your tummy...i'm sure it's glad blue is gone so it doesn't feel the threat of other imposing fish water swallows.

Cheri--Our betta fish died early this month and I was so sad as well. We had him for 3 years. I completely know what you mean about personality. We used to play with ours all the time. :(
