Tribute to
"Sprinkles"
Don and Debbie
with their beloved
"Sprinkles"
Treasured Friend
I lost a treasured friend today
The little dog who used to lay
Her gentle head upon my knee
And share her silent thoughts with me...

She'll come no longer to my call
Retrieve no more her favorite ball
A voice far greater than my own
Has called her to His golden throne.

Although my eyes are filled with tears,
I thank Him for the happy years
He let her spend down here with me
And for her love and loyalty.

When it is time for me to go
And join her there, this much I know...
I shall not fear the transient dark
For she will greet me with her bark.

      We lost our dear Sprinkles in March of 2011.  She was with us
for 15 years.  She was not just a dog... she was our daughter in
every sense of the word.  Sprinkles came to work everyday but we
cut her hours back to just half a day when she began to get tired.     
She had her bed next to my desk and a dog box full of toys.  She
went to every meeting and every interview.  You can learn a lot
about an individual with a dog in the room.  Sprinkles traveled on
weekends to Florida and flew in the cabin with us.  She had to have
a health exam before going on the flight and traveled in her Sherpa
Bag.  She was a little fashion diva and wore her Louis Vuitton collar
with an attitude!!!
