A donation was made in memory of Mattie on
Feb 09, 2009.
Our Mattie was the center of our universe for 10 precious years. He brought us love, sweetness and kisses. He taught us, through his actions, to live in the moment and to treat everyone with kindness.
He was a dirty little scruffy $40 pound puppy that we got from the shelter who, after a number of washes and a hair cut, turned out to be a beautiful Shih Tzu - people often said, "He looks like an ewok!"
He had hundreds of nicknames, but our favorite is "Bubby" because he was so gentle and wise, and never hesitated to give us little kisses.
We will miss you our sweet little boy; we hope to live a life full of the wonder you displayed, the kindness that you shared with everyone, and the knowledge that a life lived in the moment brings forth the best joy.
