Thoughts from his favourite Dog: Dear Papa You loved me from the moment you met me at the RSPCA and you told Mum that you could see i was a good dog to adopt. You helped the adoption process and you came to see me on my first day in my new home. You went out of your way to come and keep me company when Mum was busy working. You loved me as if I was exclusively your dog. I used to get very excited when i arrived at your apartments and i would run like a greyhound down the corridor to greet you. You always gave me some of your food and i always asked for more. Do you remember when i caught you unawares and pinched a packet of crisps out of your hand? You would take me for lovely rides in your car along the front at Lytham with the windows open. But mostly you and I would snuggle up together on the settee and sleep - our favourite pastime since we both increased in years. I do not understand where you have gone Papa or why you had to go. But Mum tells me you are with Jesus and I'll see you again one day in heaven where we will both be young and strong to run free together. I love you Papa and I miss you.
