Completely Destroyed lost hurt and missing my best friend and love

[Capt. Terry]

I CAN SYMPATHIZE WITH YOU HERE BRO.... I BURRIED MY CHOCOLATE LAB 14 YEARS OLD TWO WEEKS AGO ON A THURSDAY NIGHT, AUGUST 26, 2010...THIS HOT WEATHER WAS HARD ON HER. SHE LOST ALMOST 17 LBS SINCE MAY THIS SUMMER....

SHE COULD NOT EVEN STAND UP WHEN I GOT HOME FROM WORK THAT DAY.... I STAYED WITH HER...EVEN GOT A LITTLE KIDDIE POOL,....FILLED IT UP WITH ABOUT 3 INCHES OF FRESH COLD WATER AND LAYED HER IN THAT.....I SAT THERE IN A CHAIR RUBBING HER AND IT WAS A LONG AFTERNOON......

I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO HAVE TO PUT HER DOWN MYSELF,.....BUT THE MAN UPSTAIRS TOOK CARE OF IT...
SHE PASSED AT ABOUT 9:40 PM THAT NIGHT....I BURRIED HER BEHIND THE GARDEN - HARD PILL TO SWALLOW.....BEST RETRIEVER I EVER HAD...

.....EVEN HARDER PILL WAS TELLING MY LITTLE BOY THE NEXT NIGHT THAT AUTUMN HAD GONE TO LIVE WITH JESUS....

JUST REMEMBER THE GOOD TIMES CAPT.....THATS ALL I KNOW TO TELL YA.
