This is in memory of HOMBRE my boy.

I remember the day I got you it was as if was yesterday.
You were the first one who came to me when I came to pick out a puppy .
I guess you picked me.
I am so glad you did because you were my best friend.
I look at your picture on my wall everyday and wish so much that
you were still with me.
I carry you in my heart always.
I remember the day when the vet said the cancer had won
in spite of all our efforts.
I did not want you to go but I loved you so much that
I could not watch you suffer.
I still think about when you put your paw on my lap
and the vet put you to sleep I knew that one day I would see you again.
I knew you knew that you were loved for the ten years you were mine.
My heart still aches when I don’t see you waiting for me at the door
and it has been three years since that day.

There will never be another dog that touched my life like you did.
You were my friend my boy and I am glad that you gave me so
many years of happiness.

I miss you so.
You are gone but I promise you are not and never will be forgotten.
I have a picture of you that I keep on my dash in my car because I know
how much you loved to ride well you are still riding with me.
We have been a lot of places boy.
Wait for me!

 

I Will Always Love You
