Our Willie passed away on July 9, 2015. He was 11 years old. In those 11 years he really lived. He was our friend, companion, protector, and we loved him like a child. When he was younger, he used to love running my family’s farm with my mother’s dog, Ginger. He had a love for the cows and he loved Ginger. As he got older, he found a new best friend in our other dog, Cassie. They had a quiet love. You could see it in the way they laid together and slept peacefully. One of his favorite things to do was to go out on the deck and lay in the sun, listen to the birds and enjoy his peaceful environment. He loved our home in the woods. So many smells and sights. We took long walks in the woods together. Towards the end of his life, when he was ill, he was catered to like the special being that he was. He really didn’t think he was a dog.
He will be missed. Until we meet again on the other side . . .
