I hope you are resting in peace with all the memories you have to leave...
As the tiny fuzzy puppy, you were the gift to Dad during his divorce that left him sad.
Until he saw your friendly face and laughed!
I was always in awe at your balance being raised by the cat, How cute you were when you sat.
Or how nice you were to any new thing you met....
The Therapy dogs will all miss you and we will always LOVE you!
For you welcomed in Dad's new bride, proud to stay close to Teresa's side. You were the peacemaking dog that kept Eddie and Oscar from odds. You guided blind Cory to the lawn and kissed on Sidda even if she just yawned. So now that you are gone....We hope you can hear our song, hear our hearts long! It was very hard to say goodbye and understand the world will not seem quite right. Not without our shining light in our Sweet Newton, with your greeting howl and many long cuddles and with all the ways you had us giggle......Now our sudden struggle is for we had hope you stayed awhile more keeping us all warm and safe! Yet no dog can take your place as you leave us all with a true proud smile on our face!
I hope your spirit will always stay close as the years keep us on the go.....maybe even with your wet nose you catch all of our tears and we didn't even know!
Rest in Peace Newton Shively
LOVE FOREVER YOUR FAMILY
A sweet and lovely tribute. Thank you.
