Friends that you had to let go.
Yes. He was staying with me. Renting my lower level of my house. His niece called me last Oct 1st to do a wellness check on him. I found him stone cold dead of the floor. As I mentioned earlier, he was in poor health with heart complications. He looked as if he was trying to let his dog out. But only made it halfway. Laying next to his walker.
I also now have a dog. She is well trained. And certainly knows the house. But I can tell she misses him. But she does have a more active life. With more people interactions. So doing what I can.
