Canada Ping!
Just rips me apart. Saw another article with photos showing his beloved dogs waiting for him to come home. People who don’t cry after reading these articles and seeing the photographs must be made of stone.
By the way, I don’t cry easily.
Rest in peace, Corporal, and may God comfort your loved ones.
But kudos for Canada doing it in the cities too!
I hope the dogs stay together and go to a loving home. I’m sure they will, poor babies. RIP Cpl. Gone but never forgotten.
Thank you.
So, so sad.
May God rest his soul.
Canada reminds me of the country we used to be... Prayers for Cpl. Nathan Cirillo’s family and loved ones...
