It was such an honor to love and care for you for the last eleven years. You truly were my better half. Never judgemental, anyone and everything was your friend. Always happy, even when you were in pain, you waited faithfully for me to return.
I will miss you for as long as there is breath in my lungs and I walk the earth. Wait for me at the trail head, buddy. When I get there, we'll go the rest of the way together.
