In Memory of Precious Jake

Jake was born at home…fourteen years and one and a half months ago.

On 1/13/02 I had to make the decision to end his pain.

When I did that…my pain and grief has overwhelmed my heart in sadness.

Jake was my comfort.

At the end of the day…my baby was always here…

always loving…always wanting his kisses and belly rubs.

Jake would smile up at me…and the whole world seemed right.

Now…all I see is years of missing him..days filled with

sadness and moments in time…empty with heart break.

He was a large German shepherd/akita.

The biggest most gentle dog.

He loved me..and any member of my family.

No one…or another pet can ever fill his big old paws…and

he will always be my special baby boy.

My precious Jake…mom did not want to let you go….but

when you crawled to get to me…and I saw you shaking..the fear…

the pain…I could do no less…than do what I could to end your pain.

You fought for over three years with painful arthritis…and your

courage through it all will remain with me forever.

I could not love you more..it was just not possible; for you were the

best…and perfect in every way.

I will love you till the end of time…and when our tomorrow’s

come together again…then..the circle will be complete and

I will be holding you in my arms forever.

I love you Jake. My soul runs with yours.

I pray you are strong again and happy.

God hold my baby boy in your arms…watch over him

and give him his kisses and belly rubs for me;

and when it is time..I pray that Jake meets me and shows

me the way home.

I love you always Precious Jake…

until our tomorrow’s..

Your mom in heart forever and always….

Pat
