I am deeply sorry for your loss. Although Merrick's life was short, I am sure he filled every moment with all the love his big heart could hold for you.
Newfie Wings...
by Joan Steik
When I die, give me away to the children.
If you need to cry, cry for the paws that have not known love.
Give someone a hug, give them what you need to give me.
I want to leave you with something, something as magical as the rainbows that paint the sky.
Look for me in the friends I have known and loved.
Let me live on in your acts of kindness.
Love does not die... So when all that is left of me is love,
Give me away......
So I can earn my wings and fly in the night, along with the stars, and twinkle, twinkle, ever so bright.
Your Newfie Angel... Merrick
