This has certainly been a tough week of notifications:
Prayers to the Buck Family...
Dear Deb and Scott, I hope this email finds you well. My family and I purchased a black lab from you in the summer of 2016. Ranger was from the Daphne x Yella litter born on May 23, 2016. Sadly, we had to say goodbye to Ranger on November 8th of this year. He was never just a dog to us, but part of the family. There is a large hole in my family’s hearts as we morn the loss of Ranger. I still expect to see him on his spot on the sofa, where I always enjoyed a snuggle with him before I started my day. Feeding time isn’t the same with his empty dish and the bed seems empty without him lying by my feet stealing all the covers.
Ranger spent his almost 10 years with my family and I playing countless hours of fetch, many walks around our property and exploring the woods. If he wasn’t playing fetch or sleeping on the sofa, you could usually find him outside on the deck soaking up the sunshine. Ranger loved being wherever we were and one of the things I loved about him most, was his love for life and his “not a care in the world” attitude. If you were having a tough day, he would be sure to brighten it.
The hardest part is always the goodbye, but his body told me he was ready. As hard as the goodbye is, how lucky I am to have loved him for all his years. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to have Ranger in our family.
Wishing you a health and happy holiday season.
Kind Regards,
Laurabeth Buck and Family
