On Wednesday, January 28th, I lost the one thing that truly loved me more than himself, Buster, my loyal companion and sidekick for 17 years. I love that little dog with my whole heart, as he did me; I truly have no heart left. He is terribly missed; there will never be another love like his. I hear heaven is a place where all the dogs you’ve ever loved come to greet you, and I know Buster will be the first to find me.

I’ll love you forever, Buster boy.
