Sugar by Susan

Sugar my toy poodle

I will never forget you. My dad picked out a special puppy when he picked you. You will be remembered. You enjoyed taking rides in dad’s blue goose station wagon and riding in my dad’s van and cadillac. You were one of the family. My dad picked you out for me but you were my dad’s dog. I remember having you till I was a Sophmore in high school.

I was 16 when you died the year after I lost my dad to a heart attack when I was 15 1/2 years old and a Freshman in high school. Dad had to have you by his side to help him in heaven everyday. That’s why you was chosen to go to heaven to be with my dad and had to leave me my mom and my sister. It was hard losing you because you was a gift to me from my dad. I lost you. I know you will take care of my dad till I can go to heaven to be with you two again.

Till then you are a special puppy dog memory. Always remember living in the mobile home and house with me mom dad my sister those were happy times.
