It’s been almost 2 years since you left us and I miss you every day. Remember when you and I used to walk on the beach when we lived in Maryland on the bay. Well we live at the ocean now and I always think how much you would have loved running on the sand and
playing in the waves.
I hope you are doing those things in Heaven. I just wish you were here with us now. I always think of you when planes fly over our house. Remember when you used to chase the planes in the sky as they flew over. You could hear them coming before I did. You were so funny and made us laugh. I miss you unrolling the toilet paper roll through the house, knocking over the trash cans. Boy, what I wouldn’t give to have you here to do those things again. I tried so hard to save you sweetie, but the disease was just too strong.
We did everything possible, I hope you know that. You died in my arms, and I’m thankful for that. You were surrounded by love in your final moments. There will never be another Paddy in my life. I know you are at the Rainbow Bridge waiting for me. I’ll be looking for you sweetie when it’s my time. I still have your favorite ball and your collar and a lock of hair. Things I treasure. You have fun playing and running and remember I love you so much. I MISS YOU!!!
I'll love you forever,
