It is with much sadness that we inform you that our dear Mackenzie passed away this afternoon.  She was surrounded by loved ones at home till her final breath was taken.

Although her decline came so rapidly (given the doctor’s assessment yesterday), we are all incredibly grateful that her suffering wasn’t drawn out.  We all hope and pray that her soul has found peace and take comfort knowing that she is now watching over us.
