Good Friday: Good News Around the Web 3

This week we have a loyal dog, a fighting grandpa, and rich folk giving back.

This is just a great story. And a big reason why I love dogs. Ciccio, an Italian dog, has been visiting church daily even after his master passed. It’s really something how dogs are able to do that. They just know to help their owner. They truly can be a best friend. Heck, dog spelled backwards is God so…yeah.

That’s why they train these dogs to be fire fighters and police “pups” if you will. Even seeing eye dogs. Dogs are smart and can do quite a bit of stuff. I used to have one when I was little. She got too old and had to be put down but boy we had some good times.

In the story, we see that the sisters were 130 miles apart. They had lost each other during WWII and were separated for 72 years. Now, the sisters are 88 and 82 and are looking for a brother who apparently could be in the U.S. (the sisters are in Bosnia). I hope they do find their brother, but considering their ages…ah never mind.
