My Bestest Buddy

7/25/04 - 8/1/10

A very good friend of mine wrote this for my Sophie...

She came into your life, a joy
A snuggling, cuddling, pup.
No matter what the day would bring
She'd lift your spirits up!

Miss Sophie was a the best if dogs,
Her goal to make you smile
Her cheerful face and wagging tail
Made life see so worthwhile

While friends and jobs could come and go,
Your Sophie was forever
She'd boo and hiss, or cheer and jeer
At each newfound endeavor

Apartment, condo, attic, house…
Your Sophie knew her home
And any place that Amy moved
Miss Sophie ruled and roamed.

So sad the day has come to pass
That Sophie isn't here
But while you may not see now,
I know she remains near

Although your cry abundant tears,
Still grieving for your love,
Your Sophie says, "Momma, don't weep,
I'll wait for you above!"

Of course this pain will last a bit,
but let not life stand still
Remember her with all your heart,
Her character and will

Miss Sophie holds a sacred place
Her spirit is unending
Your memories will be there for life,
Your heart to go forward mending

A special, spoiled, loving, girl...
A constant source of laughter
We honor her and all she was
From then to ever after
