Opie


In 1993, we purchased our first home. Of course, no home would be complete without a dog. So, we went to the pound and got a beagle/welsh corgi puppy. We named him Opie, and he was delightful. He slept with us every night. He lived through eating half a bag of ant killer, jumping out of the back of a moving truck, and a tussle with an unknown wild animal. He moved to Pennsylvania with us, went on vacation with us, and was there through many of life's ups and downs. He was our friend, my husband's and kids' first dog. We loved him. He passed today and we are sooo sad. We won't forget this wonderful companion we had for all these years. We miss him terribly.

Bless your heart, I know how much a pet can be missed. Hope you had a wonderful mother's day.
