In Memorium



Chewy 1996-2008

It is difficult to sum up our family's feelings today. On Friday we had to put down our dear sweet Chewy. He has been a member for our family and a part of our lives for so long. My younger children don't have any memories without him.

He was everything a dog should be. I have so much to share about him, and yet no words seem to be enough. We feel so lucky to have had him for as long as we did. If you haven't had an animal for a best friend before, you may not understand this. If you have, you know what a bittersweet experience this has been.

Oh how we loved and miss that dog!

We're already missing him too. He was a magnificent family member. I think we're all just glad that dogs go straight to heaven...another reason to get ourselves there! It won't seem the same without him. Our condolances to each of you.

Oh this is so sad! I'm very sorry Bextrand Family. He looks so sweet in that photo. I bet it has been a quiet few days over there.

Lot's of love for you all.
