      Thank you for your kind words. I could have said more but I knew I wouldn't last much longer. I miss those two, but I know we'll be together again one day. Thank you for listening.

    Hi Rick loved your video about your cats that you loved so much,and the fact that you honored them 😊. Sports cards collecting is a passion, but is no comparison to having a pet that you love beyond understanding, I'd give all my card away, if I could have my little Yorkeyterrier back😢. Thank you so much for sharing you beautiful cats.

      Thank you, David. I am glad to see from the video that it was obvious that I adored the both of them. I appreciate you saying that I "honored" them in the video. I didn't realize it until you said something.
      You're right, cards are a passion but a pet is priceless. I am sorry about your Yorkeyterrier. I am sure you gave him/her a beautiful life. Appreciate the kind works and you watching!

    Rick, I am glad you decided to do this video. It is important for both you to share your feelings about Lalo and Sadie, and for us to hear it. I know if it’s not easy to do.
    You gave them a wonderful life and they did the same for you. When we add pets and they become part of our family we know this day will inevitably come,but I know you would agree that it is worth the pain you’re feeling right now because of all the joy you brought to each other.
    RIP Sadie and Lalo.

      Thank you, my friend. I think you know me well enough to hear how difficult it was for me to do this video, but I am glad I did it. I just couldn't go on making videos unless I document this event.
      That's the hard part of adopting a pet, you know one day their lives will end. I am pleased though that they lived a great life. Thanks for listening, Terry,

    Rick…fairly new subscriber here from the Pacific NW and longtime Dodgers fan having grown up in Encino in the 70’s and loving those great Dodgers teams. I just recently lost my dog and was avoiding music by listening to some of your older episodes. Ironically, this one just began playing after I had listened to others. I’m sorry to hear about your cats but your video actually helped as it reminded me that I’m not alone with my grief in losing a pet. Thanks for helping and I enjoy hearing your stories about the Dodgers and card collecting. 👍

      Hi Todd! First of all, Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words. I am very sorry to hear about your dogs passing. It's not easy living a life without our best friends, That was the hardest video I ever made, but I felt their passing needed to be said out loud. Always remember you are never alone with your grief. I still have mine, and probably always will. I've learned ways to honor both of them and it helps.
      You grew up in Encino? Always reminds me of the Karate Kid. I love the Valley. My cousin lives in Tarzana. The Dodgers from the 70s will always be my favorite team. Ron Cey was my favorite, who was yours?
      I hope you'll continue you to enjoy the video content. Thanks again!

      @@RickAcostaDodgerCardCollector I loved that entire team Rick but I’d have to say Ron Cey and Dave Lopes were my two favorite players. Someone asked me recently if you could choose one card that symbolizes your love of the game what would it be and I mentioned how nostalgic that 1974 Topps Ron Cey card makes me feel when I see it. Cool card of a young Cey in action. Well…I guess we have more than losing a best friend in common. Keep up the videos. Terry from TJMac turned me onto your channel and I’m digging it. 👍

    So sorry to hear about Sadie's passing, Rick. I know how devastated I was each time one of my dogs has passed. My two new pups have been with us for 9 months now and they are a handful, but worth it. Just know that you'll meet your friends again someday.

    • @RickAcostaDodgerCardCollector
      @RickAcostaDodgerCardCollector Před 5 měsíci +1

      You know how it is, Mike. It's just not easy when the pets pass. Breaks my heart but I have to remind myself that they lived great lives. Two nine month old pups means that you'll have many years of joy in front of you.
      You're right, I will see them again. Appreciate hearing from you, my friend!

    I'm glad to be your friend. My daughter and I have had 3 gray cats between us. Binx, our first one, who was always in El Paso, died after a long stomach cancer. We knew it was coming, but we were both devastated. I have her ashes with me. Luna and Oden went with Lili to Seattle, and it's always a joy to see them when I visit. Oden has definitely used up a few of his lives, and he's very mellow with me. Luna is more enigmatic.

      Michael, I love the story about Luna and Oden. I love talking about cats as much as I love talking about cards. It helps knowing there are others that feel the same way I do. I am sorry about Binx. I am sure you her an incredible life.
      I know Lalo and Sadie gave me a great 15 years. I miss them dearly, but I know one day we'll be together again. I appreciate you listening to me.
