Very sad news...

Monday night we lost a very special member of our family. Our dog Dani, who we've loved and cared for for 11 years, died suddenly and unexpectedly.

Dad and Mom adopted Dani from a beagle rescue group in Ann Arbor in May, 1997. She was 8 months old at the time and has been a major part of our family ever since. She was the first "child" in the family and was treated as such. Dani ate with us, watched TV with us, and slept with us. She even traveled and went on many vacations with us.

Dani had a very laid back personality and let very little bother her. She tolerated kids poking her, chasing her, pulling her ears, and riding her like a horse. She loved sleeping on the back of couches and loved pillows even more. We couldn't have asked for a sweeter dog.

The following picture montage covers Dani's life with us. Some of the pictures are of her and her brother, Bailey. Mom and Dad adopted him in July, 1997 at 6 weeks old. And, of course, there are pictures of Dani with Syd.

We will miss Dani very much.
