Bob had a good life...14 years ago, I was there in the wee hours of the morning to watch him come into this world...And at 9 weeks old he came to live with us...Bob had lots of adventures...he used to ride my Harley with me...he even went to Daytona Bike Week when he was one...Bob flew to Oregon and back to visit relatives...He also went on vacation with us and explored Savannah Georgia...going to a Dog Fair and seeing a Dog Psychic, who told us he was lonely and wanted a little sister...And that is when Vienna came into our lives...Bob and Vienna were inseparable...definitely a bonded pair...The even traveled by car from Florida to Oregon and back...They loved running and playing in the soft green grass in Oregon...

Several years later Bob and Vienna were joined by a new little brother named Max...they had lots of adventures together...again traveling from Florida to Oregon and back by car...

Bob Barker has always been a good friend, companion and baby to his daddy and I...we will miss you forever Bob, but I know I'll see you again one day across the Rainbow Bridge...in the meantime enjoy the wonderful soft grass, and run and play to your hearts content...I will love you forever my sweet little man....

September 28, 2017...Sweet boy, it's been a month today since I held your little body in my arms for the last time...I miss you so much...I know you are happy and healthy now, and I hope you think of me sometimes...you are always on my mind...I don't cry as often and I try to hid it when I do...I know you would not like me to be sad...I miss you sweet little kiss of two tiny licks that told me everything was ok...save room in your heart for me little love...you will always be in mine...

November 28, 2017...My sweet boy, three months have passed since you crossed the Rainbow Bridge...I think every day that "today I will be strong", but then I think of you and the tears flow...Even though I still have Vienna and Max, the house feels empty...I look for you everywhere and still talk to you...you were my first baby, and you gave me so many wonderful years but I still miss you terribly...Christmas is coming and when I put up the tree this year, your paw print was the first ornament to be hung in your honor...I'm not putting up the stockings this year, I couldn't bear not to see yours among the others...maybe next year when the pain is less...my sweet little love, think of me kindly from time to time and wait for me...I love you forever little man...

December 28, 2017...My sweet baby, four months today you have been gone from my arms...Christmas was really hard, looking at your empty bed by the fireplace...After looking for you for a long time Vienna lay in the bed, but her face was sad...She misses her big brother and constant companion of a lifetime...I miss you too, my little love...I cried all morning on Christmas day...seeing your paw print on the tree and your urn on the fire place...Christmas was not very happy for me...I tried to put on a brave face for your dad and Vienna and Max, but it was difficult...I miss you more every day my angel, you are always on my mind...I know that one day we will be together again, but it seems so far away...remember me my sweet baby...I love you forever...

January 28, 2017...My dearest darling Bob Barker, you have been gone from me for 5 months now and the pain is never less...I miss you as much now as the first day you left me on my own...Max has taken over your barking duties...he won't let anyone leave the room without barking...just like you used to do...How I miss your wonderful sweet voice welcoming me home and your sweet kisses waking me up in the morning...I still wake up at 3:00 am to take you outside and feed you your breakfast...but you are not here, so I lay in bed and think about you and hope you are happy...I know you have made many friends and are happy, healthy and young again none of which I would take back to have you for even just a moment...I wait for the day we will be together again my sweet little love, please don't forget me....I'll never forget you....I love you little man...

February 28, 2017 And now six months without you my angel...The world is dark without your light....I know you are young again, healthy and happy....I know there is no pain or sorrow where you are, but here the pain goes on and on...I long for the day when we will be together once again my sweet boy....please remember me little one, I love you more than anything....you are my heart little love....I love you forever...

August 28, 2018....My sweet baby, it's been a year since I last held you in my arms....it seems like yesterday...I miss you more now than ever little one...you happy dance when it was time for breakfast and you beautiful little face when we said good night....your sweet little lick to wake me up in the morning...oh how I miss you...I had a plaque made to put on your urn, I don't want your sweet name to be forgotten!...Please wait for me little one and one day we will be together again...love mommy...

January 1, 2019....Sweet little Bob, another year has turned...days are so long but the months and years pass so quickly...you have been on my mind so much lately little one...part of it is your ornament on the tree, part of it is the season...either way you are so missed...Elaine gave Max and Vienna treats for Christmas, but she also included three little stockings...a red one for Max, a pink one for Vienna and she remembered that your color was blue so you have a beautiful little blue stocking by your urn...Over time I have collected a few things that sit around you on the mantle...little things that remind me of you and all the happiness that you brought to all of us little man...You will always be most precious to me sweet baby and I will miss you until we are together again!...I love you little guy....mommy...

My sweet Bob...even though I haven't written, you are always on my mind.

I know you are not alone now. Sweet Vienna and my precious Momma joined you a year and a half ago. I miss you all so much.

I try not to cry, but my tears fall like rain. My sorrow is so great, it encompasses my life. I love you all so much. Please wait for me my darlings....
