CUBBY
To call him a dog hardly seems to do him justice, though in as much as he had four legs, a tail, and barked, I admit he was to all outward appearances. But to those who knew him well, he was a perfect gentlemen.

He was much more than that. He grew up with our kids and brought joy to our lives. We discovered early on that he had a special talent - his smile. It was the funniest thing you ever saw. He would smile at you the minute you walked in the door. He would show those little teeth while wagging his tail. Soon he learned to do it on command - that's how he got the name Smilin' Boy. We will sure miss him and that little smile.

Notice the cute smiles on both faces. He must have had a sense of humor to let Dakota dress him in a tiara.
We all know that dogs don't live forever and when they become your friend you better be ready for tremendous joy as well as sadness.
God sure knew what he was doing when he created Man's Best Friend.
Rest In Peace Cubby.
Our wonderful family began when a California Guy with two daughters, married an Arizona Girl with a son and a daughter. Two years later we started adding two more sons to the family. With six children and now five grandchildren we continue to work hard, play hard, love, and laugh through this adventure called life.
