Our Coco:

Coco was ours before we were married. We got her from the animal shelter in Decatur, Illinois when she was just 5 weeks old. Coco was our baby when we were told we could not have one. She was a good big sister when we received our first miracle, and our second. She's been our "guard cat," and the one who slept between us every night for 13 years. She left us suddenly at 14. The pain from our loss will subside with time. But the memory of her presence and "conversation" will remain.
