I will really miss Peewee, I had the great joy of taking care of her for over a year. She was a great person and patient. I admired her for being so patient and cheerful when she knew it was almost the end and that she might not get better. I wish I couldve known her when she wasn't sick, I know she had to be the kindest and fun perosn to be around. She still had it in her to play practical jokes even when she didn't feel good. Her and Larry became like our second family here at work and I hope his family will surround him with love as he lost his best friend and soul mate of 35 years which has to be hard. Take care Peewee you are in a better place. 🙂
