R.I.P. Barronstein Sir Maxwell Cherokee

 So long good buddy!!!  Barron, you were MY dog!!  You loved anyone that would pet you, but I was definitely your "person!"  You would search me out even after you couldn't see!  You knew my voice, my smell, my touch!  You lived a good long life buddy!  You would have been 13 on April 17th.  I was really hoping you could make it to 13, but it just wasn't in the cards.  You were tired...worn out.  The patience you had with the kids was amazing.  As long as they were touching you you were happy!  You didn't mind Norah crawling all over you.  I'm sure it didn't always feel good, but you would just raise your head up to see who it was & then lay back down.  You were a good dog!!  No dog will ever compare to your gentle spirit.  I love you buddy & I miss you more than I can explain!!  Have fun up there with Remmi, running & playing like you guys used to!!  I love you good buddy!
