I was watching the Kentucky Derby earlier. I haven’t seen that many hats since an Hasidic wedding.

She was the last name we signed on every birthday card.
She was our first baby, a therapist, a pillow, a big sister, a schoolmarm, a comedian, a party girl and a rebel. Definitely not a watchdog—she would have let burglars in and shown them where we kept the bacon and American cheese slices.
Always smiling even when she slept. She loved a good scratch and would lean into you if she liked you, though "if" is generous—she did this for basically everyone. She would jump into the pool immediately after being shampooed and dried (noooooo!) then she'd do her laps (backstroke - jk doggie paddle) then lie in the grass on her back doing bunny kicks with her tongue sticking out. That meant summer to me. 13 and a half years we were lucky to have with you.
Franny, Winnie, Mommy and I miss you. The house misses you.
The house is so quiet. The quiet is so loud. But that quiet is slowly being filled with stories about you and laughter amongst the sniffles. Thank you for everything. Gosh, we miss you so much. Goodnight, Gary.
