It is with great sadness that I tell you that Heaven gained an angel today. Widget was the BIGGEST little dog God put on this earth weighing in at a whopping three pounds. She told every dog she met that she was large and in charge. She was a constant companion to Nova, but Bill was her choice of best buddies. You may have been small little one, but you are leaving a huge hole in our lives. You were a special girl since the day you joined our pack nine years ago and we will never forget you. 💔🐾

Only. My. Son. JR and I are in Glen Rose, Tx to show my Brittany, Camry and his little spitfire ZeeBee. Thank God JR came with me, because they are the only ones who did anything today!
