It is with a heavy heart and a lump in my throat that I share the news that my beautiful Duchess passed away last night.
She gave us so much joy in her 13 years of life, we loved her like a baby and we will never be the same without her.

My hope is that she is in doggy heaven, sassy and happy, as she was here with us before her blindness.
My house is so empty and silent now.
She left a huge hole in my heart.
I miss her so much.
She packed a huge personality in her tiny 4lb. body.
Always ready to go for a ride and greet the people at the Starbucks drive thru...
A huge treat was the Mc Donalds drive thru, when she would get a half of a french fry...
We always thought she was half cat, since she loved to get on the top of the furniture to soak up the sun....

Two years ago I had this portrait painted of her, and will always cherish it.
She hated to wear sweaters, but in the winter she would shiver so much, I made her wear one on especially cold days.
Friends thought she was part of the decorations.....
We love you , Duchie
Rest In Peace
