This was a memory that came up on my facebook page. This video was done by Jill's mom Erica 2 years ago on Jan 1st. It has a lot of our Heros and Angels in it. Watch and enjoy

Ohhhhhhhh Micheeeeeellllllle! OhhhhhhhhhMicheeeeeeelllllle!
The tears are flowing big time! Bittersweet tears.....tears of joy to be able to smile for the lives they had.........tears of love for each and every one of our brave heroes...........tears of sadness.............tears shed in honor of loves that clearly WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!! It's a beautiful way to start the New Year carrying our loved ones forward in our hearts. This video helps us all remember each photo with a smile and gratitude!
I remember when Jill first .ade this jeartfelt video. Many Souls were still in their earth clothes, .many already had on their Angel Wings....but they were (and still are) loved by each one of us. They are our family. I touched each photo and said their names and thanked them for gracing our lives. This video means soooooo much to us.
You were so thoughtful to post this today Michelle. You are truly one of the blessings of this journey. For "Jill" to put this together for us, to give us a remembrance that will be with us forever...such a lovely Soul. And to know that Jill continues to carry the torch for all our Bridge Angels must warms my heart!
Much love to everyone on this journey and to all our heroes....ALWAYS REMEMBERED!!! Thank you Michelle and Jill!

This is such a special video and we are so happy you decided to share it Michelle, thank you! Lots of folks haven't had a chance to see it so it's always great to share stuff from the wayback machine.
It makes us all watery-eyed too, you can really feel the love that comes from the tribute.

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
