Hank ~ AKA "Hanky Panky"

I went home for Thanksgiving and was able to spend some time with Hank. He used to be so happy and excited to see me that he would thrust his 80 pound body at me and I'd just about fall over. Now he was old, had arthritis and was moving slowly. I knew it would soon be time for him to leave us and only hoped that he would not suffer for too much longer. Before I left, we hung out for a while and I said goodbye. He passed away on November 30. He was a friend, a guardian, and part of our family for over 12 years.
