In loving memory of Roxy (2007 – 2023)

I remember the first day we met. We went to mom’s workplace to pick you up from her co-worker and you were waiting at the door with the auntie. You were their family pet and they couldn’t take care of you anymore but trusted my mom to give her a good home. You were placed in my sisters lap while we loaded your things into our van. I remember the auntie crying because you were a really good girl. We went home and I was still a little apprehensive of you because I was scared of dogs historically. But you were also scared so I held and sang to you i still think of you when I hear “three little birds”. I had a swimming lesson and I was really sad if have to leave uou at home for an hour but we got you brand new toys when we came home and we played together. I loved you from the very beginning and will always spend my life missing you. I’m grateful there is a place for me to visit you here.

The first love of my life. I will always remember singing to you the first day you came home and how you were by my side ever since. I wrapped you in my sweater I wore that day so you’d feel my love the entire time as you made your peaceful transition from this earth. I hope you always knew I loved you. I still remember the smell of your bad breath and your frito.

Still a devastating loss to this day. Miss you plenty, lots of love

I miss u Roxy
