Dear Tiny Boy,
It has been 6 days since the tearful night that we had to let you go. You were laying in your favorite spot - on your bed in front of the fireplace in the family room. You were surrounded by your heartbroken family. You went peacefully and with dignity. More tears were shed that night than in my entire lifetime. And nothing has been the same since. The house seems empty without you there and we all feel the void in our hearts. You were the best part of coming home. You always greeted us with a smile and a wag of the tail. You were always happy to see us and you were always there. Dad used to say that you were the only one who got up to greet him when he got home from work. You truely were man's best friend. You were so beautiful in body and in spirit, Tiny Boy. You enjoyed the simplest things in life, like sitting on the front porch and barking at the passers by, feeling the warm sun on your back and the cool breeze in your face. You lived a wonderful life with us. The time we spent with you will be cherished always and remembered fondly. You have done and seen many things. You loved to go to Vermont with us. You played in the snow and caught snowballs in your mouth. Your favorite place, however, was the beach house. Daddy would take you to the beach and throw the frisbee to you. You would run and fetch for hours. And even as you got older and daddy would throw that frisbee just once, you would run slower but still you would fetch it and bring it back. And then you would sit on the beach, Man and his dog, savoring life and the time spent with one another. I hope that you are running on the beaches of Heaven and that you feel young and full of vigor again. I hope that all of your aches and pains have gone and that you are basking in the glory of life everlasting. Nobody can prepare themselves for the loss of a loved one and this is so difficult but I find comfort in knowing that you are in a better place. I know that you have reunited with all those we have loved and lost. We are all sad and lonely without you. Daddy is lost without you. You were always by his side, boy. You would be the first one up with him in the morning. And you would follow him up to bed each night. When you got older and your legs got stiff, you still made the stairs each night up to bed. You were a real trooper. Your love will live on in our hearts forever. Know, Tiny, that you are and always will be loved and missed. You will never be forgotten, Tiny Boy - Our Best Friend and Loyal Companion.
Until We Meet Again.
Love Always, Danny07/21/2009
Hey Tiny Boy
I have been thinking about you and missing you so much. We are going to the beach house tomorrow and it breaks my heart that you will not be with us. I will go to the beach and sit in the sand and think of you as i watch the ocean waves roll into the shore. I hope you will be doing the same from heaven. I hope that you are in a beautiful place and that you are surrounded by people who love you, just as you were down here. And know that we will see you again one day!
Love you and miss you, our faithful companion.
Danny

My Dearest Tiny,
Miss you so much my boy. I just wanted to say thank you for all that you have given me and our family. You taught us more than we ever could have known about true love and loyalty. The void I feel runs deep and I would give anything to see you again. Mom and Dad got a beautiful plaque with your picture on it and put it on the shelf in the family room along with your treat can and your leash. It is a beautiful memorial. We all love you, Tiny and hope that you are truely "on eagle's wings", soaring freely and rejoicing in your new life. Not a day goes by that you are not missed and loved.

My Dear Tiny Boy...Missing you for almost 2 months now...days turn into weeks and weeks into months...The summer has turned to fall...this was your favorite time to sit out and enjoy the cool breeze.I still expect to see you sitting on the front porch or lying in front of the fireplace. Dom and I set a date for the wedding! September 12th, 2010. I wish you could be there to see it as you have been there for all of life's most important memories. I will keep you in my heart always boy. I wish I could see you again. We all do, boy. We have wonderful memories of your life with us and we are forever grateful of the love that you gave us.
Love You Always,

Thank You my Tiny Boy. Your visit the other night warmed my heart. You came to me in my dreams and it was wonderful. You were a puppy and I was having a bad day and daddy handed you to me and said "here...he will make everything all better". And you did. I held you in my arms and you made it all better. I sat with you for hours and got lost in your love. That's what you always did with your unconditional love and undying devotion to our family. Thank you for all that you were and all that you always will be. I love you always and yearn to see you again.
Danny

Tiny - Christmas Eve is tomorrow and then Christmas Day. Our first of many lonely Christmases without you. Sitting around the fire opening gifts will not be the same without you, boy. I cried in the pet store the other day because without even thinking I picked out a new hedge hog for you. We all feel the pain in our hearts and your absence has left a void in our home and our family. I send you loving christmas wishes in Heaven and thank you for the 15 wonderful christmases that you shared with us. You always enjoyed opening gifts with us. Your stocking will hang on the mantle as always in loving memory of the most wonderful and true companion that you were to us all. We love you always and will keep you in our hearts forever. Merry First Christmas in Heaven. I hope you are soaring with the Angels. You are my Angel, Tiny and I love you.

My Dearest Tiny, I miss you more each day. "Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Others stay for a while and leave footprints on our hearts and we are never the same." Your footprints are forever on my heart. You have touched my life in a way that no other can ever do. I love you, Tiny. I tell duke and dutch about you all the time. I tell them what a wonderful boy you are and how they should try to be more like their uncle tiny. Mom and dad have been taking duke over to their house. He reminds them of you which makes me so proud. Dad won't let duke call him grandpa but it's ok...i know he loves him anyway. We are all going to the beach house for easter. It will be fun but again, never the same without you. I will sit by the ocean and think of you. I feel your presence with me from afar and it warms my soul. Thank you for taking care of me still. I love you always, Danny.

My Tiny Boy...I am missing you and wishing you were here. Mom and dad got a puppy. His name is Bishop. He is a Rhodesian Ridgeback. Daddy picked him because we always said you looked part ridgeback. He is a handfull...very fiesty. He has big shoes to fill! He is cute but he is not you and we all miss you so much. I put the Louie Armstrong song "What a wonderful world" on your page because daddy and I picked it as the song we will dance to at the Wedding! He said he wants to dance with all three of his girls at each of their weddings to this song! I just wanted to keep you posted on what's going on because even though you are not here with us in body, you are in spirit and you will always be a part of this family. We will all see you again one day.
I love you always!
Danny

Hey Boy, We just got home from Vermont. Thought of you thruout the trip remembering how you loved to play in the snow with us! You were King of the Mountain and would catch snowballs! We couldn't bring the boys because the place dad rented wasn't pet friendly...can you imagine that? They stayed with Lisa and had fun! I love you and miss you constantly and hope you are looking down on us from Heaven and feeling the love that you have left in our hearts and lives. You have instilled a love in me for animals that I never had before and I am trying to put that love to a good cause. I haven't figured it out yet but I will let you know when I do. You are the inspiration behind it. I put Mr Bojangles as your song...since that's what we used to call you! I will talk to you soon boy and until then know that you are in my thoughts every day. I love you always and forever.
Love, Your Danny

Hey my boy. I read this great book called Together. It was about a seeing eye dog and a blind man that he helped. It was a wonderful story about the pure and true love between a man and his dog. It is a bond like no other. Humans will disappoint you but dogs never will. Their love is the truest. I thought of you and the love that you showed us and taught us all the days of your life. I started my Pet First Aid and CPR course yestarday. It is really cool! I have discovered my passion in life finally! I can't wait to see where it leads me. I am training Duke and Dutch for their Canine Good Citizen evaluation. It is hard but they will get there! Missing you is a constant but I know you are soaring high above. I send my love up to you today and every day.
Love you always my good boy,
Danny

Hey boy boy. Just missing you and wanted to let you know that you are in my thoughts and my heart forever. I am sad without you. So many things make me think of you and it is good to have so many happy memories of you. My life is better because you were in it and you always will be. The hurt of losing you doesnt go away. My love for you is endless my Tiny.
Love you so much...Danny

Good morning by boy. I woke up to your loving prescence all around me. I feel you here with me and I thank you for shining down on me today. You amaze me as you continue to be there for me when I need you just as you always have. I changed your area to spring and as this beautiful season begins I think of you on the front porch enjoying the simplest joys in life. I sat outside yestarday and enjoyed the warm air and the cool breeze and I thank you for that. You taught me what is important in life. Your spirit is in the air that I breathe and your love surrounds me. Can you shine your love down on Duke and Dutch as well so they may be blessed with long, healthy, happy lives as you were. I love you and miss you tinyboy today and every single day.
All my love forever, Danny

My Boy, how have you been? I always tell you about what's going on in my life but never ask about you...Are you happy up there? Is heaven everything we dream it to be? I hope you are basking in all the glory. I miss you so much. We spent memorial day weekend at the beach house. The boys got to run on the beach as you always loved to do...until we got kicked off by beach security. I wish you could be here with the boys. Duke is so smart and obedient and Dutch is just a happy-go-lucky guy. They are my whole life. Duke is developing hip displacure which makes me so sad because he loves to run. We are going to take him to an orthopedic. We just celebrated his 4th Birthday. I made him a special cake and we bought him a pool for the yard. They both love it. Dutch rolls around in the water. I love to see them enjoy life as I loved to see you do the same. I wish you were still down here enjoying it with us. But I find comfort knowing that you are enjoying in a whole new and wonderful capacity. I will love you all the days of my life. May you continue to shine your angelic love down on us. You are truely my angel and I am forever grateful for all you have given to me with your unconditional and pure love. I hope I have given to you in the same capacity and that I can give to the boys in the same way. I am loving you and missing you as always. Danny

Sending you peace and love on your second anniversary in Heaven. I know it is selfish to wish for you to still be here with us when you are in a most divine place now, but i miss you so very much. I feel you all around me and I take a piece of you with me everywhere I go. I hope you understand just how much you have given me. I am a better person because of you and my love for you and for all animals lives on because you touched my life. I am forever grateful for your loving prescence and will love you all the days of my life until we meet again one day. I know that you will be waiting with open arms for me. Until then my boy, please continue to watch over me and the boys. You are a most beautiful soul and I cherish every wonderful memory I have with you. You are and always will be my true friend and faithful companion. I love you always and forever my beautiful Tiny Boy. <3 Danny xoxo

Hi my tinyboy. It has been a while but don't think that means I haven't been thinking of you. You will never be forgotten and your presence is all around me everyday. You are by beautiful angel. I am sad tonight and wish you were here to comfort me. Duke layed on my lap and made me feel better and then we decided to visit you. And now dutch is laying with me. They are such good boys. I think of the awful night that we had to let you go and I cannot breathe. The sadness never goes away. I love you and miss you and wanted you to know that you are thought of always.
Love you my good boy, Danny.

Merry Christmas to my Angel in heaven, my Tiny boy. Life goes on but time stands still whenever I think of you. It feels like just yestarday that God took you into his arms and out of ours. You are always in our hearts. People say that time heals all but I am still mourning your loss. People say that it gets easier but my heart still aches for you and my eyes fill up with tears as I miss you more each day. My one wish is that you know how truely you are loved by your family. I thank you for teaching me a love so pure and so unconditional. You made our hearts full and our love for you will go on. Duke and Dutch are such beautiful loving boys. You would be proud to call them family. And Bishop is a good boy too! We all love you and miss you terribly. May you be filled with peace and love. Merry 3rd Christmas in Heaven. I love you with all my heart my beautiful boy. Danny xoxo
