Butch:
Daddy Romeo and I miss you so much. The day Daddy took you to the vet’s office was the hardest day of our lives. Daddy took it so hard that he missed a day of work as he cried all that day. I have never seen him cry like that. You were so sick and in such pain. The decision was the hardest we have ever had to make. We had to realize that “real love” does not cause/and allow pain. It broke our heart to say goodby to you. God sent you as an angel to us and he needed you back.
You were our confidant friend and love. when I was dx w/ Multiple Sclerosis you knew how sick and upset I was. When I sat in pain and cried you would walk up and lay your head in my lap and let my tears fall on you. When I could not get out of bed you would walk up and lay your head on the bed to check on me and then you would lay down as close to the bed as you could get. I could throw my hand over the side of the bed and I could feel you laying there protecting and loving me. You were telling me: “momma I’m here you are not by yourself”. When I had trouble walking you would jump up and run by my side as if you were saying:”here I am momma you can lean on me”. You will never know how much Daddy Romeo and I love and miss you. We miss your smell your feel your compassion your companionship but most of all we miss your unconditional love. The world could really learn something from you my friend. God looked down from heaven and saw that we needed an angel so he sent you to us. I know that God is allowing you to look over us while you are there as you did here. I know you are in heaven having a wonderful reunion with Midnight. Please tell him how much we love and miss him. Someday we will all be together. We had 16 wonderful years together-but that was not enough. We miss you so much. The tears keep coming. Our minds know that you are no longer in pain but our hearts miss you so much.
Always remember Butch: love never dies- we feel you in a breeze thru the air we smell you in the backyard flowers and we see you in our dreams and hear you in our hearts. Please wait on us as we will all be together some day. God allowed you to make a mark on our lives that can never be erased.
We will always love you
Daddy Momma and Romeo
