From Diablo's Mom Tracie

I also want to thank Allison for all that she did and still does to help me through what has proven to be the hardest thing that I have ever been through. I still cannot belive that he is gone, there is not a day that goes by that I do not remember some special thing that he did. Of course, there were so many that I may have memories for everyday of the rest of my life. Debo was more than just a family pet, he was and still is part of our family. He meant the world to us and we miss him more than words can ever explain. Debo did a lot of amazing things in the two short years that he was with us. He had some kind of a special bond with all children especially out little princess, Makenna. I remember one morning when I was out in the garage Debo was at my side and he kept pacing. He would not settle down for anything so I assumed that he needed to go to the bathroom. I opened the garage door and he bolted, which was highly unlike him. I soon realized that he had very good reason to be nervous....you see a neighbor's little one had wandered out of the house without her mom knowing. Debo went directly to her and we walked her back into the safety of her house. He heard that little girls cries long before I did and he knew that there was a child in danger. Debo could always sense a child was in danger long before any of us knew. Such as the time that Makenna had an asthma attack in the middle of the night. Debo kept on crying and pacing until he woke me up and then I realized that Makenna was not breathing. To this day I think about the fact that Makenna may not still be with us if it were not for her special angel. That is why I know that he is still up there watching over us and he always will be. He is our special angel in heaven that sits on a star and guards our family like the loyal friend he was on earth. He touched the heart of every person that crossed his path and to know him was to absolutely adore him. His eyes always told you that he loved you and his actions reminded you that he wanted to be near you forever. Even though he is gone he will never be forgotten.

Debo......we miss you and all of the tenderness that you brought into our lives. I only wish that I could hug you right now and tell you that I love you so very much.. I know that you hear Makenna's little prayers to you at night and that you always will. Keep on being that bright star that shines down on us and always know that you are in my heart where you belong. I want to thank you for all that you gave to us and everyone that loved you. You made such a tender impression on me that can never be replaced. There will never be another like you and I hope heaven knows that. I love you with all of my heart, I miss you with all that I am, and I know that you will never be forgotten. Your crossing the bridge came way to soon, but I know that I felt so much love towards you in the short time that you were here that you will never forget us. I am sending you enough hugs and kisses to last a lifetime.....

Luv ya baby boy,
Mommy
