So, this past Friday, my husband and I had to put my beloved Tucker to sleep. There are no words. You’d think, as a writer, I’d have some profound message, some detailed description of all I’m feeling, some deep poetry to celebrate his life. But I’ve got nothing. Nothing but sorrow. Nothing but a deep whole in my heart where once there was unadulterated joy.
My Tucker was sweet and gentle and my life will never be the same without him.
There is nothing more precious than the relationship with a friend. Especially if that friend is a dog.
I’ll miss you my best buddy. Rest in peace.

Kimberli,
So sorry to hear the loss of your fur-baby. Warm thoughts and hugs.
Kimberli Bindschatel says
Thank you so much Wendy. I appreciate your kind words.

Sorry for your loss, Kimberli. We’ve gone through mourning for three cats and it never gets easier. I know exactly how you feel and it really sucks to lose such an unconditionally loving, loyal friend such as a pet.
Luanne says
So sorry to hear about Tucker. Our pets hold special places in our hearts, especially when we have them with us for a long time. Hugs to you.
Kimberli Bindschatel says
Thanks all for your kind thoughts.

We too lost a fur baby this past year. Chewbaka was a corgi and we so miss his smiling face. We share our tears for your loss of Tucker.
