We buried Kitty Saturday morning with a cherry bush from an Arbor Day bare root seedling to mark the spot. Chloe had been ill for some time, started going downhill a week or so ago and slipped away in the wee hours Saturday morning with Joyce by her side. She was affable, patient and, as Abigail wrote on her headstone, a friend to everyone. She is survived by her brother Cotton and sister Khaki.
