| Mickey dog 3/15/88 - 2/7/01
Mickey our family dog died of cancer on Feb 7, 2001. Mickey became our
dog when he was only 6 weeks old. Kathryn and I where not yet married.
Kathryn, David (my brother), and I brought Mickey home one evening in
April 1988. Kathryn and I would marry the next April.
Mickey was present for every life changing event of our marriage.
Mickey waited for us to return from Denise's wedding. Mickey rode with us
to Johns Hopkins Hospital the cold dark night that Paige (our oldest
daughter) was born. Mickey waited for us the sunny January day while Rose
came into the world. Mickey rode in with me in the cab of the large rental
truck that moved us to Texas. Mickey welcomed Beth home from the hospital
after her birth, and Grace from China on our return.
Mickey was always with us and Kathryn and I where with him at the end.
We hope one day to be with him again.
The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the
goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child
will lead them. Isaiah 11:6 |
