Thank you for the 13+ years of happiness you gave us. Thank you for the lessons about the simple joys of life; a tossed ball, a great meal, a long walk.  you’ve taught us much and life will be harder without you. But you’d want us to be happy like you were and we will try with your spirit in mind.  You are a great reminder that love is the ultimate in life; we love you, each other and will carry your memory with us always.  Maybe one day, we can toss that ball and take that long walk with you again.  Goodbye, Chia.
