Hey big boy. It's been a whole month since you've been gone. It seems like a year. I miss you so much. Every day I rake around your little grave in the flower bed and keep the leaves and twigs off your headstone. I put that little solar powered light next to you so I could look out the patio door and see you and so you would never have to be in the dark for too long. Emma misses you too Sam. She took a few days to figure out you were not comming back and that it was you in that hole we dug in the flowerbed. She is really quiet these days.Not like when you and her were together...he he I loved to hear the both of you when I came home from work. It's not the same around here without you my big boy. You were such a good dog. I wanted you to know that. I could not have even imagined that I would love you so much. I wanted to thank you for showing me how to love. Thank you so much for being my dog...my best friend. I know I have to let you go because you are in a better place now. I looked into your eyes as you were leaving me and I knew that you were starting to hurt. But just think big boy...you beat the odds for 15 months...even the Vets at the college were in awe of you. You knew I needed you and you stayed until you knew I could handle it. You were so special I hope we meet again, and please come see me in my dreams. I love you Daddy
