O.P. was with me for 17+ years and they were the best 17 years of my life.  I miss O.P. more than anything else in this world.  She truly was my best friend.  When she cried, I comforted her.  When I was sad, she brightened my day.  When I came home from work, took out the garbage or just come back into the room, it was like she hasn’t seen me all day.  She wagged her tail so feverishly, that sometimes I thought she will give herself whiplash.  There were no sadder eyes than when I would leave to go to work than hers.  She went with me (whether in body or in mind) when I went on vacation or on a business trip.  I always have a biscuit in my pocket to remind me how important she is to me.  I have her picture on my desk along with my brothers and sisters for she is as much part of the family as they are.  I’ll think of her every day for the rest of my life.  I know she is in Heaven with Grandpa.  Today is Sunday September 26th, 2004.  Once again, I prayed today in church that we would meet again in Heaven.  As much as I want to live on earth for as long as I can, is as much as I long to see you again.  When I die and go to heaven, I will go over the Rainbow Bridge and see you.  I think GOD would not have put you in my life if He didn’t intent for us to be together for eternity.
