Deacon, better known as Deac

Deacon came into our lives September of 2006 and left October of 2016. We had 10 great years together.

He and I had a special bond and I miss him so much. He would follow me around the house like a puppy. If I would be reading a book or the newspaper, he would be right there in my lap. We would watch TV and he would sit/sleep in my lap for hours. He was my best buddy.

If I went outside, he would sit in whatever window was closest to where I was so he could watch me. He would expect his treats at 1:00 PM, and if they were not there, he would let you know it. He had some voice and he was not afraid to use it if he wanted something.

In the 10 years we had the pleasure of owning each other, he never went outside. He did put one of his paws/hands on the garage floor once when he first came into our lives and jumped back in the house and said "no thank you" I'll stay inside with you.

It was amazing. You could leave a door open and he would just sit there and look outside, never wanting to go out.

It is said that when my time comes we will meet again on the other side of the rainbow bridge. I sure hope that is true. Until that time Deac, when we met again, you will be in my thoughts and prayers always. I love you and will never forget you.
