A Beloved Friend

He was my best friend, my ear when I needed to talk, my companion no matter what time of the day or night. He never minded listening or complained that I talked too much or that he was watching television could we do this later. He snored at night, a sound that gave me comfort and made me know I wasn't alone. He complained occasionally , but was easily appeased by a back rub or a kiss. He passed away June 12, 2007.

His name was Kama Kozzi. He was my Yorkshire Terrier, my friend, my family more than some of the human members ever could be. He made me smile with his silliness, laugh even when I didn't have anything to laugh about. He stayed beside me when I couldn't move through the pain, crawled with me when I couldn't stand up. He let me cry on his shoulder more than once, never minding when I got his fur wet.

Koz was an amazing friend and I was blessed to have him in my life. I will miss him desperately, shed tears for him and be glad that he is no longer in any pain. I love you , Koz!
