Gunnar the Golden Retriever

15th March 1996 to 5th October 2003, Aged 7

from Becky Spaulding

Not only were you man's best friend, but mine, Megan's, the grandgirls, and everyone you ever met.  Your time with us was ever so short, but such a overwhelming joy!!  How you loved to be loved!!!  You did enjoy your games of fetch with whatever was handy at the time!!  You were Reggie's right hand, left hand, best bud, driving buddy, confidant, just his best friend!!  You loved your truck rides AND your treats!!!  I hope you know that the hardest thing we had to do to you was take you back to the vet on Sunday.  We really thought you were going to be okay.  But, we couldn't stand to see you suffer and know that you wouldn't be happy the way you were.  So dearest, dearest friend, we will let you rest at peace from those terrible seizures and stroke.  We will always miss you and your sweet ways.  There will never be another like you and we wouldn't want there to be.  Be at peace and know that we will miss you always.
Love,
Becky, Reggie, Megan, Matt, Kelly and Girls
