In Memoriale Fra' Filippo Lippi

The cat that narrowly escaped death from the wheels of an orange truck (with no brakes)
The cat that ate an entire ball of rubber bands & later passed it with great pain
The cat that fell 4 stories off a balcony ledge & laughed in the face of death
Finally met her end Monday night
She was known by many names, cat, kitty, pumpkin, football, and her Christian name
Fra' Filippo Lippi
Despite all her heroics on the battlefield of life, she could no longer escape time
She lived a long and full life to the age of 16-17 (not sure which)
She died from CRF (Chronic Renal Insufficiency) or in other words, kidney failure
She will be missed on earth, for now she's in the great halls of Valhalla feasting on fish
and gravy to her heart's delight as one of the chosen of Odin.

Sorry for your loss Jerry - we will all miss seeing her at the next family gathering
Love - Russ and Jenn
