Taken the day before her surgery,
and 5 days before her death
Loving, gentle, kind, devoted, sweet...Sophie. This isn't how I thought her life would have ended. A large rock found in the belly of our whale. She must have scooped it up when she was smelling all the new smells in our backyard from the flood. She was our first golden. She is the reason we bought Mollie, Chloie and Hollie. She is the reason we will always have goldens. Now she is at peace. I thank God that we didn't have to put her down. He must have known how hard Mollie's death was on us ten months ago. I will miss her staring out our bedroom window watching us leave the house. I will miss her greeting me at the door when I come home from work each day. I will miss HER. Thank you for 9 1/2 wonderful years, my friend. You were truly loved.
