In Memory of Luke
October 11, 2013
I lost my sweet boy, Luke, this morning after 13-1/2 years of being my steady, faithful and loving companion. I never had a dog who was as devoted and loyal as Luke. He was my protector, my stalker, my shadow and my overflowing fountain of joy. He was the reason I had to turn on a light if I got up in the middle of the night –otherwise I would have tripped over him. He never left my side … until tonight. There is a saying that goes something to the effect of “I want to be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.” I don’t know if I could ever live up to that because this dog loved me unconditionally. I am going to miss him terribly. There is a giant, 80-pound hole in my heart right now. Goodnight, sweet Luke.
