We put Cricket to rest today. It was a small ceremony but powerful as we said goodbye to a powerful lifelong friend who was a little girl’s only friend through many moves and trauma. Always there, always ready with a smile and a story, Cricket helped my partner become the amazing woman she is today. 4 C cell batteries plus a 9 volt powered this absolute jewel of a friend. Unfortunately mould caught up with her after many years and I feel like I’ve let both my partner and Cricket down. That being said, Cricket will always be her best friend and live in our hearts forever.
