We lost a long time member of the family.
Our little buddy Thor passed away a couple weeks ago,
I wanted to write about him earlier, but I just couldn't
bring myself to say goodbye.
Thor became part of the family in 2004.
Lexx saved up all her money from Christmas & birthdays.
She wanted a dog in the worst way,
so Todd and I made a deal with her
that if she could pay for it, she could get one.
Thor was the one!
From the moment she saw him,
it was love at first site.
He was truly her best friend,
there by her side constantly.
He slept in her bed, was there with her
through all her graduations,
vacations, walks, movies...
you name it, Thor was there.
It's been a tough couple of weeks.
We come home and expect for him to
greet us, or give us kisses
and a big goofy smile.
We find comfort in the fact that
Thor will live on in the memories.
of love and devotion he gave us.
"The heart remembers most what it has loved best."

Thor was so adorable as was my cat, Tony, who was about 13 years old. Tony was on "his" deck slowly dying. He was unable to get to his bed when I came home for lunch about 2 weeks ago so I laid him curled inside one of his beds by the back door. When I got home from work he was nowhere to be found and I never saw him again. I miss him so much! I imagine Thor's remaining "children" wonder where he could be. Pets are just so special. AA
I miss Thor a lot too. I don't think Lexx will ever have another puppy dog quite like Thor.
