Maxwell

 

Passed October 10th, 2003

To our "Maxwell", you were our first, and best friend when we moved 
to Oregon, and you quickly became a cherished member of our family. 
On January 5th, 2000 when we met you we knew right away that you 
were the one for us when YOU picked us to be your family. You jumped 
right up in our truck just like you belonged there forever. You were a 
little over two years old when you came to us and stayed with us for 
almost 4 years, in that time we played in the snow (you loved that), 
jumped in the river, played fetch, comforted me when the thunder came, 
went for many long walks, played with all the neighborhood kids, went 
for lots of rides in the truck with Daddy.

You were a big old gentle giant and loved by all! We loved coming home 
to see you waiting for us with your happy grin and your welcome home 
song, not to mention that tail waggin’ so fast and hard it could fan a small 
city. You will be in our hearts forever, you are a good ol’ sole. The time 
we did share was brief, but non the less very special. We were truly 
blessed to have gotten to spend that time together. You were the best 
doggie dog in the whole world.

You are going to meet some of our people friends and family that have 
gone on before you when you cross over the bridge, and I know they are 
going to love you just as much as we did. They will take good care of you. 
Just know that some day we will be together again and we can finish our 
game of fetch. I know that on the other side of the bridge all of your days 
will be filled with happiness and comfort. Take care good friend, you are 
in good hands.
