Sydney

"Well done, good and faithful servant!" (Matthew 25:21 NIV)

Our beloved dog, Sydney, died this weekend. She spent 4238 days on this earth. In that time, she brought joy to everyone that came into her life. She exuded goodness; she was consistently faithful; she loved unconditionally, and trusted unceasingly. Her presence brought our little family together. Her absence will create a void that cannot be filled. She didn’t play favorites. She made everyone feel special.  She taught us many lessons --about patience, loyalty, caring, and consistency. She lived her 11 years 7 months and 6 days being the best dog she could be. She fulfilled her purpose magnificently. During her last few hours of life, I sat by her side repeating the above verse: Well done good and faithful Syd; well done.
