In loving memory

"The gentlest soul, the loudest joy."

Their story

Buddy came home on a rainy Saturday and made every day after feel a little brighter. He had a way of knowing when you needed him most — pressing his head against your knee, waiting for you to breathe again. Twelve years of muddy paws, beach mornings, and that low contented sigh as he settled by the fire. We will love him always.

Welcomed baby Theo with infinite patience and a single, very serious sniff.

His last morning
Sun on the porch. His head in my lap. Quiet. Loved.
