My sweetest girl,
Loyal friend,
You were always there,
Sharing unconditional love,
Until the end,
Seventeen years is a long time,
But it surely feels like not enough,
I thank you for what you provided,
All that you did,
You helped me thru shallow times,
Always providing a guiding light,
My companion right by my side,
Laying with me each night,
Gentle goodness in your heart,
You and I are family forever,
Even in passing, that will never end.
I miss you,
I love you,
Feel no more pain,
Rest in sweet sleep,
Goodbye, my friend,
In the Elysian Fields,
I will see you again.
This morning, June 27, 2015, I laid my sweet little girl to rest.
I have had her for almost 17 years. She passed peacefully.
I miss her already.

This was a pretty typical morning for us as she was never pleased to have me leave the house.
