In Loving Memory of Roman
In Loving Memory of Roman
In life we try to surround ourselves with people who love and care for us, support us even when we make stupid decisions, and whom we can learn from. For Travis one of these “people” happen to have four legs, brown fur, and a personality that lit up any room (or clear it depending on what he ate). Travis brought Roman home giddy and excited, but naïve as to what he was about to experience. He came to realize that he didn’t bring home a dog or a pet; he adopted a loyal companion, a best friend who taught him more than he ever could have imagined. What Travis realized is that once in a lifetime, if you are lucky, there is a dog who chooses to love and care for us, support us even when we make stupid decisions, and whom we can learn from… this was Romeo, lover of belly scratches, sleep, ducks (especially those of the rubber variety), food, and of course Travis. The sweetest little beast with so much love to give, winning the hearts of all who met him. Romeo loved life and his memories will last a lifetime.
