This is dedicated to our dog, Luke,who died Aug. 1st 01 by a car. It all started with a phone call at 6:08 from a friend who thought they saw him...I was in my room and i heard my mom scream and cry out to me! Little did I know that I was about to find out that the most precious gift we have ever been given was killed! When I saw him I couldnt breathe...that little dog was everything to me! He brought more joy, happiness and memories to our family than any human being could have. It was so hard to believe that I was just playing with him at 5:00 and at 6 hes gone. Luke was only 7 lbs...an itailian miniture greyhound...given to us by Matt Geiger(from the 76ers)..Now i have to live with coming home from school and him not being there to jump in my arms and whine cuz he missed me, noone to protect me when little brothers are a pest! His death hit us hard, we just sat around crying and thinking about all the good times we've had with him, He was the greatest dog, even if he left surprises on my floor all the time! we always thought of him as a miracle dog...surviving one hit..when he was real young...and being lost in town for a few days...the little guy was soo strong! Ill always miss how he would boss around all the cats knowing he was scared of them and how he would jump in my lap and tuck his head under my chin when i sat down, or how we would "sing" together! Ill also miss how everytime someone came over..i would here my dad saying"Get em' luke..get'em, get'em, get'em" and then luke would bark!
Well I guess those who have went through this know how its like! He was everything to our family and more! We will always love him and think of him everyday! |
