MUFFY

IT SEEMS LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY THAT YOU CAME INTO MY LIFE AND GAVE IT MEANING. FROM THE VERY BEGINNING YOU HAD ME WRAPPED AROUND YOUR TINY PAW. YOU ASKED VERY LITTLE FROM ME JUST SOME LOVE AND ATTENTION BUT YOU GAVE SO MUCH MORE BACK. THE UNCONDITIONAL LOVE TRUST AFFECTION AND COMPANIONSHIP YOU GAVE WAS BEYOND MEASURE. YOU WEIGHED LESS THEN FIVE POUNDS BUT YOUR HEART GAVE A TON OF PURE LOVE.

YOU ALWAYS SLEPT IN THE CROOK OF MY ARM. YOU WERE THE FIRST THING I SAW WHEN I WOKE UP AND THE LAST THING I SAW BEFORE GOING TO SLEEP. THERE WERE A FEW TIMES YOU WEREN’T HAPPY WITH ME AND SLEPT ON YOUR BED DOWNSTAIRS BUT NOT MANY I DON’T THINK EITHER OF US COULD SLEEP BY OURSELVES.

YOU HAD YOUR TRAILS AND PAIN THROUGH YOUR SIXTEEN YEARS BUT YOU NEVER CONPLAINED YOU JUST WANTED ME CLOSE BY.

YOU WERE NEVER A PET YOU WERE MY FAMILY AND WILL ALWAYS BE MY FAMILY AND YOU WILL LIVE IN MY HEART FOREVER. I DON’T KNOW WHAT I AM GOING TO DO WITHOUT. I SEE AND HEAR EVERYWHERE AROUND THE HOUSE AND NEIGHBORHOOD.
I KEEP LOOKING FOR YOU.

TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF AND
WE WILL REST TOGETHER SOMEDAY.

GOODBYE AND GOD BLESS YOU.

ALL MY LOVE ALWAYS

DAD
