To a Dear Dog...

Our dog, Cocoa, died, Saturday, July 24nd, 2010. She was eight years old. She was the best dog anyone could ever have. She loved strangers especially the UPS man and was also very patient and kind with the little kids. Her favorite game was catch and she loved chasing us kids around the house.

We all loved her very much.
