I am so sorry that I did not do my Pink Saturday post for you today. The wonderful post I had planned will be here for you next week and you will just melt it is so precious.
Most of you know that I volunteer for animal rescue and help at our shelter. Tragically, someone in animal rescue passed away as a result of her own hand yesterday and I just didn't feel like posting something all cheery and pink when my ♥ is so very sad.
Whenever we, as mere human beings, try so desperately to save lives (animal or human), it can be horribly depressing when we realize that we can't save them all. Most of us work through the depression and come out on the other side stronger and better and more determined. However, and sadly, not all of us come out on the other side alive...

This is so sad. Praying God comforts you and your co-workers' family.
Please do not apologize. Things happen and we cannot control. Pink Saturday is a blessing to us all but it is not essential. Please take care of you and your other friends touched by this tragedy.
Hugs and prayers for all, Lisa

I am sorry for your loss. It is a difficult job but life is difficult isn't it? We all wish everything we and everyone we love could live forever and we all want to save these innocent pets but sometime life can be cruel. Such a death is shocking and very difficult. Please take care and hugs to you along with many prayers being offered up. Anne

Oh dear! That is so sad! I can only imagine how you are feeling but God bless you for volunteering at a shelter. All of the dogs that we have had, we rescued and are shelter dogs. We couldn't have asked for better "members" of our family. Please take care of yourself! And thank you for all you do for those poor animals!

Mimi, I am so sad for the loss of your friend. I lift you up in prayer for your sorrow.
I don't know how anyone can not be affected when they work with rescued animals. I have three dogs and two cats that we rescued.
I thank you for the unselfish work you do on behalf of animals.

This brought tears to my eyes! I feel the pain when I see those commercials on TV with animals who have been abused, it is a very heavy burden for workers to carry. How terribly sad to lose your friend. God bless you and may He be merciful to the one departed. Hugs, Kerrie
I am so sorry. How very, very sad. A truly special person is gone.
That poor lady or gentleman. I'm so sorry for what they must have suffered. Animals are so precious - it can weigh so heavy on one's heart. God bless that person and all who work to make life better for God's creatures.
Really sad. Sorry about it.
I'm so sorry about your loss. You are in my thoughts.
