Meet the one and only Deucey...

Deuce, otherwise known as Deucey, was a sweet boy, arrived at approximately 6 months of age.
He raised the spirits of many and was always gentle, a fast learner and exceptionally well behaved.
Wherever we traveled, strangers frequently stopped to compliment him for his beautiful looks.
His absence has created a wide chasm within the heart and an undescribable void.
Witness a tiny glimpse of what may appear to be just another puppy from the outside, but having each other has been epic.
He is missed terribly in ways I am unable to articulate.
Each day without his presence passes by frighfully, with a deafening silence, no longer there when calling his name.
I hope that looking at these snapshots of life can reveal Deucey's spark and also bring you a smile, as he was responsible for so much joy.

Observe the snaphots in the short life of Deucey and his exploits!

I can call out your name forever
When will I see you, but never.
We witnessed many adventures together
Will life without you be better?

I often see you in my dreams
Waking up breaks me into smithereens.
Wading with you in flowing streams
Will life be at all as it seems?

As each day races by
I cannot help but to wonder why.
Without you at my side
Will life carry on without my guide?
-Me

Deucey was born around July 16th 2012.
On May 30th 2020 5:25 PM, Deucey ceased to live, wrapped in my arms.
Farewell my great friend and companion...

Hold fast to dreams,
For if dreams die,
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.

Hold fast to dreams.
For if dreams go,
Life is a barren field
Covered with snow.

-Langston Hughes (1902-1967)
