Jack 1995-2008


(memorial plaque by Gary Rith)
I had thought about this pretty carefully, but quite easy to make in the end and I just made it. Jack chased his ball about a million times in his life and always had his little Lab smile. Not sure what the scroll will say, maybe either 'Little Jack' or 'Jack 1995-2008'. Then it will be placed on his grave.

I'm so sorry to hear about Jack. He sounds like he was a great dog. I'll go home and throw the ball a few times for my dog tonight, in Jack's memory.

I love the plaque; it's beautiful.

I'm so sorry, Gary. But it's obvious that Jack gave and got a lot of love during his life, and you have created a beautiful tribute to that.
