God took you away so abruptly and cut your life so short that we can only pray that he has a plan for you on the bridge. Maybe he knew something we didn't, maybe he knew something was wrong and didn't want you to suffer...but we are suffering so much since we lost you just a few weeks ago. I saw this poem and it brought tears to my eyes because your beautiful loving face popped in my head. Mommy and Daddy misses you so much. Nikki and Jewels too...Please be there at the gate when Nikki comes to meet you at the bridge as we know her day too is coming much to soon and she will need your loving care and affection and guidance....WE LOVE YOU JAKE

This is from Daddy (He misses your slobbery kisses)

I miss you so much; My four-legged friend
I ask ourselves each day; if the pain will ever end
Your loss is so hard; for one person to bear
because we were a team; an inseparable pair

You were by my side; when I got up each day
waiting so patiently; to go out and play
You were there each night; when I got home
waiting to go to the park; where you could roam

You always knew; if I was having a bad day
so you'd snuggle up close; and try to get me to play
If that didn't work; you'd put your head in my lap
then make yourself comfortable; and take a nap

One way or another you; would brighten my day
like only you could; you had a special way
You gave me a lifetime; of memories to hold
through all the years ahead; till I'm gray and old

I promise I'll see you; again one day
when we'll be together again; to go run and play
Your loss is a cross; I will just have to bear
because you and I know; we're an inseparable pair
